Early start today. Everyone seemed keen to get back out on the road after their day off. Collis had to physically hold a couple of them to keep them in camp (joking of course but near enough). The group rode to the bakery for breakfast and coffee and left in a leisurely manner. Annie remained in camp for another half hour or so but was able to catch them all pretty easily.
Jane, Melanie and Julien found some wild peaches growing on a bush on the side of the road, so we have a nice selection of peaches in the esky now. These were also enjoyed at morning tea. Short ride to morning tea of 35 kms and we had it on the Loddon River under a bridge in Benjeroop.
We were at our days destination by lunchtime with the total kms today reduced to 56.5 kms instead of the 70 kms quoted. Lazy afternoon exploring the town and the local museum. The lake is beautiful with a few people enjoying the water skiing and the pelicans waiting around for some food.
The local hotel is not cooking tonight as it is Monday but they will do some pizzas for anyone who want one. Looks like Theo and Roger will take them up on the offer. Everyone else is going to cook in tonight.
