This morning I discovered that the power to the battery charger for the fridge battery in the car has been interrupted and later in the afternoon a smell of rotten egg drifting through the caravan was the indicator that the caravan battery has been cooked (overcharged).
The second problem was relatively easy to fix by buying a new battery but the first one isn't so straight forward as it requires removal of drawers form the back of the car and rewiring the connection (which wasn't done correctly to start with).
The weather is still a bit wet with brief showers moving in from the sea multiple times a day.
The tourist information was our first stop for the day before moving onto fishing charter operators, tackle shop and finally to the supermarket for some supplies.
In the afternoon we were off to ARB, Beaurepairs, Bunnings and battery shops to get all the required bits.
A short drive to Bandy Creek brought us to a very nice area with white beaches one km east of the township. We soon had to go back to the shops for our appointment to fix the cracked windscreen in the car.
By the time we finished the rain had set in and we were back in the van for dinner and a bit more catching up on work thanks to the wonders of wireless internet access.
