This was our motel style room at the Eastcoaster Resort. We knew it was not going to be The Ritz but it was a bit sad looking even though we had already changed the first place we were allocated for this one, which was at least a bit sunnier.
So after we had made a cup of tea we decided to go for a drive. About five minutes away we decided to check out Claire and Bobs newly built 'shack'
We had not expected to find anyone at home, but when we peered through the window, there was Claire, reading a book. She immediately suggested we check out of the Eastcoaster and check in with them!!! What could we say? Certainly not 'no'.
The 'shack' is lovely, a very unusual shape with two 'wings' and the main living area, which is huge. They have a big family who all come down at various times, so they need lots of room, the shack will easily sleep ten people as it has four bedrooms and two bathrooms. They already have an established vagie garden so we had newly dug potatoes and carrots to eat. Ken, Claire and Bob also enjoyed a big pot of mussels, freshly caught locally, but needless to say, I gave them a miss, apart from fish I am not a lover of seafood and still remember with horror the times as a child on a Sunday afternoon my parents had bought winkles from a barrow in the street and we would sit there with our pins, winkling out the winkles, how I could eat them I will never know!!
