Comment:- Cooked and had tea about 7.30 pm last night, watched a bit of TV then off to bed about 8.45 pm. I am feeling pretty good now. Ready to get back on the road and heading for home.

I have been warned the traffic would be horrific on Monday as everyone will be returning home after a long weekend. I will heed their advice and go to morrow.

Awoke about 7.30 am this morning and got up about 8.30 am after listening to the radio and feeling quite lazy. Wandered over to the camp kitchen and had breakfast. Chatted to a few people who were packing up and returning to Adelaide after their long weekend. Read a bit more of my borrowed book before returning it to the person who lent it to me.

I then wandered down the street and had lunch at one of the many cafes open for business. Back to camp and checked my bike and trailer over ready for tomorrow. Had a phone call from Ian from Geelong.

Wandered around the caravan park and got chatting to the owner of a Cole 23 (Trailer Sailer) He put the boat in the water this morning and found the area wasn’t really suitable for yachts. He had hit a channel marker scrapping right down the port side of the boat.

Had a quick phone call from Tony Spark who was checking on what I was up to. He spoke very highly of the World Cycling Championships in Geelong. Everything was great. The weather, the spectators and of course the competitors.

Gathered my gear to do my diary and Blog and over to the camp kitchen to work in comfort.

Tomorrow I will head for Port Wakefield a distance of 80 km.
