Winter has arrived in Mareeba.
The last two nights it has dropped down to 11C overnight. Jolly cold. Have had to put a flannel sheet on the bed and get the flannel shirts out! Do hope it only lasts for a week or so. The daytime temps have been around 24C so one can still get warm in the direct sun. Wherever I look here in the caravan park I can see other nomads with their chairs out in the sun, generally reading a book or doing a crossword.
We would normally pack up and move further north when it gets cold, but given where we are if we move any further north we will be in PNG! Have been hearing some unbelievable temps south of us so no thought of moving in that direction just yet.
I think I have worked out why the carbon tax came into force for July. The Tour de France is on (at night for us), Wimbledon is on (ditto) and the Olympics are coming. All these require us to stay up late and run our power bills through the roof to watch them. Nice timing Julia!
