no, not fleas

Thursday 30th: i wake up and ask deb to look. do i have fleas running riot on my scalp? no. but i do have sunburn.
i have three cloth hats which look the same but two are cotton and one is polyester. turns out that that last one has SPF rating of zero.
i spend today with burning itching scalp and ears. lucky the weather has been cool.

we pack up and leave our karri hill cottage. we're sorry to leave.

first stop is pemberton bakery for drink and muffin.
there are several doors with signs, this is *not* a toilet. i appreciate clear signs like that.

next stop is Alexandra Bridge, a large camping caravan and picnic area. on the blackwood river. at a large pool, suitable for boating, swimming, fishing etc. we are there for the toilets.
it's a pleasant area though there are some noisy people not us and a generator.
we drive on to Augusta.

we're in riverscape cottages #3.

it's only midday, we go to colourpatch cafe for lunch. beautiful view over the river. delicious, fancy minimalist food, I'll need to fill up with bread for dinner.
we walk along the river beach for 30 or 40 minutes.
it's warm worth a strong cool wind. i embarrass deb by taking off my shirt, not for long, i still itch with sunburn.

back at our cottage. deb walks to the end of the road, it reaches the river. just ten minutes.
now... we do nothing.
