Comment:- Well Evon arrived in Warrnambool about 6.15 pm and it was great to see her after 4 months of being on the road. All she could say was how skinny I looked. It was a tremendous reunion as I believe she suffered my absence more than anyone.

As soon as the dust had settled we went down to the local supermarket and bought a few items for tea for the next couple of nights. Back to the cabin and we enjoyed a nice wine with our tea. We then chatted for a while, watched a bit of telly then retired for the night.

Had a nice sleep in finally surfacing about 8.30 am. Evon cooked some bacon and tomatoes for breakfast and then I put a load of washing through. Hung the washing around the cabin to dry then headed into Warrnambool. Wandered around the shops for a while. Had a nice lunch at one of the local eateries then down to McDonalds for my free seniors coffee.

It was the Melbourne to Warrnambool Road Cycling Race and the riders were expected about 2.30 pm. We joined the crowd at the finish line and witnessed an exciting finish. We then drove around the fore shore of Warrnambool before returning to our cabin and another nice bottle of wine and cheese and bickies.

Evon cooked a nice roast tea while I did my diary

Tomorrow I hope to ride to Princetown about 75 km from here.
