Flinders Ranges trip ... Day 10

Day 10  20/9/14

Today is our 28th Wedding Anniversary! 

We spent much of the day doing nothing!

~

~

Gus decided lunch under this magnificent gum tree was in order...

~

Snags and hamburgers ...

~

With tomato sauce, in bread!

~

Later in the arvo, I made an apple crumble for our evening dessert... 

~

I used some breakfast cereal, flour, butter and sugar for the crumble top...

~

Meanwhile, Gus put together a barbecue baste for our lamb chops...

~

He cooked them over the coals of the fire on his Auspit rotisserie....

~

Here you can see the drum with vegetables which tumbled around and around as the spit is driven by a small motor in that box to the right.  We lowered it as the fire died down...and cooked the chops...

~

...but 2 hours later when we went to eat - still raw veggies!!

They just hadnt cooked at all!

~

We wnded up having chops and Continental Tomato & Pasta and gravy...our first culinary failure while camping!

~

But my apple crumble saved the night!

~

Thank God for dessert!  He he!

~

We spent another cosy night in Ruby, glad we had our hot water bottles with us!  We have been so lucky with the weather, no wind at night and quite mild.
