Thurs 8th Oct 2015 Sofala Free Camp




Off for a walk this morning up the 4WD track to the top of the hill where we will run into the road that comes into Sofala Camp.  This is also the only place I can get a signal on my phone. There are BBQ’s and a toilet here but we are ½ km further up the track all by ourselves.  I have the fire going and very pleasant.  Plans are for a camp oven roast for dinner tonight so need the coals in the fire.  Bill & Pat have arrived in their camper trailer and seem very friendly, they are camped a little further up the road towards the free camp but still seem close to us in comparison to where everyone else is. They have picked a spot where there are no overhanging branches and out in the sun so all good……..WOOPS spoke to soon, very, very friendly and have arrived with a wine bottle in hand at 2.00pm.  What a HUGE day of alcohol (5 bottles of wine consumed and I dont drink!!!!!) and conversation until my camp oven was ready and they left at 6.30pm, what more can I say except that tomorrow will NOT be the same.  Chicken roast in the camp oven was fantastic, just love cooking in the oven with the coals.  Weather is magnificent and even managed to get a bit of color sitting around.
