So, we managed to get up late on Monday morning, although we knew that we had to get some shopping done before flying over to Cape Barren.

Then, even though we checked with the woman at the hotel, we couldn;t find the supermarket. I was operating under the false assuption that there would be lots of little independent grocers around the town...nope.

Finally we found the Coles, ran around quick, stopped for a the toleting...then managed to get to the airport in time to get loadd into the tiny little plane.

Mark, the agency dude, (who rather resembles a cross between a pirate, a bikie and a gnome) picked us up at the airstrip...

Oh complete pleasure.

And it was such a beautiful day!!!

WEll three days on and we seem to be settling in fine. I flew over to Flinders today and met up with a few people, and managed to do some shopping.

On the plane on the way back I noticed that one of the screws on the side of the left prop was spinning and vibrating alrmingly. I was half expecting the prop to fall off.

I tapped the pilot on the shoulder and said...

"I don't know if you realise, but you have a screw loose!"

He laughed and gave me the thumbs up sign, and said the engineers had checked it out and all was fine. Seems I wasn;t the first to have said it to him.

WEll Mark is off to Uluru tomorrow and will leave me to my own devices. That's when the real fun begins!!!.
