While we waited for the Spyder to be fixed we had a look through the Museum at the Harley Davidson / House of Motorcycles.  There are lots of lovely old and new motorbikes.  It was a nice way to fill in time while we waited for the repairs to be done.

Foggy Start to the Day

We had to be in Prospect this morning to take the Spyder in for the oil leak to be fixed.  It was foggy when we left home, then it turned into a nice sunny day.

We left home early to avoid the school traffic.

Nearly to Brady's Lookout, and it's a bit foggy.

Big White Fluffy Clouds.

We had an early trip to George Town this morning, the first of December, the first day of summer and there was a sky full of Cumulus Clouds.  They look like the weather is cold and chilly, but it was 16oC, which is lovely and warm, but the forecast is for 50% chance of rain later in the day.

Lots of Cumulus clouds on our way to George Town.

The powerlines from the Bell Bay Power Station.

Lots more Cumulus clouds.

You can see the containers and freighter at Bell Bay.
