1998-01-15 Nathalia -> Yarrawonga, 87 km, 23.5 km/h (our fastest average by bike)
Got up early to avoid sun and had the wind at our
backs the whole day, fait du vélo côte à
côte! I broke another spoke when we arrived at the campground
and Ch. lost her chouchou. following Broken Creek, saw ibises,
photographed green and yellow fields. Got ice coffee in Nurmurkah
and cappuchino and ice cream in Katamutile where we chatted with a
couple of old guys. Yarrawonga t noon, had cheap lunch in bar (E.
fad fettucini carbonara, Ch. silver back pork). Library didn't have
internet that day, so went to I. café $6/half hour. Wrote to
Katrin and partly fixed website (bad links to picture files).
Looked for swim clothes and bought sarrong and chouchou and insect
bite cream.
Exchanged our books and I got "We the Living" by Ayn Rand. Went swimming for about 1 hour and forgot shorts. Steak sandwiches and booze for supper. Takes 4 min. to wald through huge campground with its own cricket/football oval 8next to Murray river weir).
