U.S. Thanksgiving, our Last Day in the USA

Thursday, 26 November

We spent the morning packing up and hooking up. No rush for once, we had plenty of time and we weren't going far today. The next three however. . . . .

Finally ready to leave San Antonio. Checkout time noon, but the staff said "Stay for dinner" so we did. Served at noon, Turkey and stuffing supplied by the park, the rest was pot luck.






This was Round One:






Then there was the desert table:





And a good time was had by all.




We shared our table with a couple of neighbours from home who had provided some Willis Point Spot Prawns. Just like home!

With everything ready, even the Jeep connected before hand, as soon as dinner was over we were on the road at 1:30 PM. We were both stuffed like Turkeys and had brought a goody bag with enough leftovers for another meal or two.

In previous years we had stayed at a Flying J for the night, where we would top up the fuel and spend a noisy night. A fellow camper at Braunig Lake told us that they stayed in the Travel Center a bit further north, secure and quiet, so we made that our destination. 






We arrived to nearly deserted parking lot at about 4:00 PM. The Travel Info Center was closed for the holiday! But it was beautiful and relatively peaceful even though it was located between the highway and the railroad
