Another day…..yes,(sigh)..in Coober Pedy.

100_0581 Okay, here we are, wondering if we’re ever going to leave Coober Pedy.  The part that Chris is waiting on, is still yet to arrive.  He came back from the Post Office this morning  with his head hanging.  And Margaret and I both started unpacking for another day.

At morning tea we started talking about when the package SHOULD arrive and what to do if it DOESN’T arrive again.  We’re now talking about camping out at William Creek and leaving the vans here.  However, with rain predicted any day now, it’s probably not a good idea either.    So we’ll leave that for another option.

Chris and I both took a ‘day’ trip around the “hood”.   Not much happening out there as we drove …and drove….and drove.  But, it cleared our heads and made us feel better.

100_0578 Shall we go on to Oodnadatta today?…okay maybe not.  It’s a bit far. (around 300klms)

So we headed back to the van to wait the day out.  Resigning ourselves to the fact that another day is passing by.  Chris continued reading his book and I played on the computer and even fitted a “nanny” nap in.

Well, tomorrow is another day.  Keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best.  Otherwise, we’re going to have to look at different alternatives.
