Geelong

Monday, 8th was spent on the bus back to Devonport. It was rainy, cold & windy. On checking in to the Formby hotel again, I was sharing a room with Min, a really sweet Chinese girl. She had all her washing hanging on a rack in the room with the room heater on so it was nice & warm. I also needed to do some washing, & we had a discussion about the hotel laundry room & that she had just handwashed hers.

Next morning I did the same, taking my clothes into the shower with me. It was literally like a Chinese laundry in our room!

I caught up on my blog a bit, then had a walk round the coast to Coles beach.

Today was the long ferry back to Geelong. 

At least the weather was calm & sunny. I spotted a dolphin from the ferry window & was fun to see the birds skimming along the water alongside the ship.

They had a Country musician on board giving a couple of sets on deck 9


The ferry was quiet - plenty of seats!
