Today same things as yesterday : a shiny morning working down there to our castle. Then we came back to the house to have a lunch. We started to hear the storm coming. One hour later, bahouuum! crazy weather again!
Upper Mongogarie, same day

Upper Mongogarie, water supply system, the castle (upgrade)
Yesterday evening, the rain started and without any doubt it rained during the night as well. So this morning is misty, fresh and nice. I’m going to continued working on the tower today but if it’s too wet I’ll wait and find something else to do.
Upper Mongogarie, repairing and cleaning
Today we continued organised things around. The morning was really fast. This afternoon, I’m trying to repair the vacuum. It was hard to find the screw and open it. And of course there was one screw different than the others with a star head shape precisely to prohibit people to open and repair it, pff… shitty world… Anyway, I just broke the last bit where the special screw was. This vacuum doesn’t really suck so I can try everything.
Upper Mongogarie, impressive thunder storm
Today, Monday, come back to work. We worked with Jamie here and there, no particular project, just cleaning around. We start putting things a bit everywhere ourselves. Some spade (pelle) here, a screwdriver (tourne vis) on the ground, a tape measure (metre) on the roof :-) We need to keep this place tidy. I’ve also started testing all the electric tools because some of them are not working or just ready to explode, this is not really safe… We keep the best one and the others : rubbish! Keith buy every single thing in auction or on ebay. The quality, he doesn’t really care apparently. When he could buy one thing with a good quality he prefer ten of bad quality. End then they want to dig a huge hole and buried all the rubbish, ecologic isn’t it? Yes I’m angry today.
Byron Bay > Upper Mongogarie (by car… of course)
Second day off in Byron bay. We are lucky because today is the last day with sun. From late this afternoon we should have rain everyday for minimum a week… Aïe aïe aïe! We wanted water, we are gonna be serve and even more. It’s sunny now so let’s visit before the storm!
Upper Mongogarie > Byron Bay (by car)
Hey, we just arrived in Byron Bay :-) This is the second time in 6 weeks that I come back along the ocean and it’s nice. Vilma found her backpacker and join us again. Sue and Keith continued their travel towards Brisbane. We have two days to enjoy here :-)
Upper Mongogarie, water supply system, tiny step
Today we are finishing the preparation. Some piece of wood need a special shape to fit inside the cage. It’s long to carve them but then the next step will be certainly faster. No more picture today. We came back to the house to do different short tasks.
Tomorrow we are going to visit Byron bay and Vilma will stay there because her adventure here is finished. See ya!
