Aagh! We had two cold and damp days in Port Elliot and Victor harbour so it was a case of don the warm clothes and get out there. We all headed into Victor Harbour and walked around Granite Island via the tourist train bridge across the water. Plenty of brisk fresh sea air finished with some lunch at the cafe on the island, and then a walk round town. We completed the day with some coffee and hot chocolates for the lads to warm up at the coffee shop. The next day it was partly sunny so all the lads went off to Goolwa Beach to gather some cockles to use as bait for fishing later. They came back with a bucketful and as it was about lunchtime Paul and Gaz cooked up a splendid feast using half the cockles in a Spaghetti Vongole. It was lip smacking delicious! Everyone had a clean plates except for the empty shells.
The afternoon brought on a mini golf match down at Victor Harbour, Nathaniel got his eye in with some great scores per hole but Archer won the match overall. Later on Paul took the lads fishing off the pier whilst Gaz and Kirst went to see the new Twilight movie and Karen acted as chauffeur fetching and carrying (as standing around fishing was too cold and I haven’t been following the Twilight Thing….and thought G & K might like a romantic time together!).
