On my second day Mum, Hugh and I watched the Melbourne cup on tv with a nice cold Cider then afterwards mum and I played a couple of games of pool before Hugh took us into Maitland to pick up Marion, so while we were here we explored a little bit before heading back to Weetulta. On the way home Hugh took us 5 mins down the road from the house to show us the beach which totalled a length of 15miles I think. And that evening Weetulta showed us how incredible it is by producing this incredible sunset.
On the third day we helped clean the cottage and do some odd jobs as the Wearing's daughters and their families were coming down for the weekend. That evening Hugh asked whether I would like to go to Maitland and attend the Rotary meeting there and I accepted his invitation and it was a great experience, plus I met some very nice people who were all very welcoming towards me and were interested in what my plans were whilst in Australia. At the end of the meeting Hugh joked about me being the Guest Speaker one week while I was in the area to which I thought he was joking but the President and Rod agreed it would be a good idea but I didn't have to do it. Anyway more to follow regarding this topic in the coming weeks.
On day four I cut the grass down at the cottage and helped Hugh with some other jobs that included drains and pumping up the tires on one of the tractors. Hugh then said that if I tightened the chain on the dirt bike I could take it for a spin, well once the chain was tightened to the correct tension I took the bike for a ride and managed to fall off shortly afterwards, but I was determinded to try and again and once I got the hang of it I was riding around the yard and a slow pace ensuring I didn't fall off again.
