Today was a day to get the final jobs sorted out before we were to set off.
We had a quick drive to Wal-mart to pick up a few bits and when we were there the ice cream was very tempting so we decided to buy some but as we got back to the boat it had all melted in the heat and it was pouring out over the sides, so we had to eat a whole tub between us. Although it was very yummy we all now know why everybody has freezer boxes in their cars.
Jo then had to go and drop the car off which was just in time as we had a bit of difficulty trying to fill the car with petrol, as you have to lift a little lever under the pump.
Jo and I walked up to Hatleys to pick up the fixed battery charger and when we got there we were glad to be in the air conditioning as it was really hot and I slightly burnt my shoulders.
Dad and Sean went to Travis’ to get an American gas bottle as nowhere will fill our European gas bottle. After many trips forwards and back we finally got it all sorted.
