You Yangs - Torquay
Successful days riding.
We felt both motivated and relieved that things were coming together - happy and riding well.
On the way out of the You Yangs Dave refused to keep riding until he had eaten some food, so we sat on the side of the quiet road and ate some sunshine mix (fruit and nut mix), and paper-thin wraps. The avocado we bought was rock hard - so we threw it.
Breakfast in Geelong was nice. I had a yogurt with muesli (Dave teased me about it) and Dave had some pancakes with cinnamon cream which he hated.
We then motored up some hills into Torquay with out a problem, except I had lost my red flashing rear light for my trailer which I had waited for on order for more than 2 months. Bummer.
After a royal-rogering from a friend of ours on accommodation, we paid $15 each to stay at the caravan park. We set out tents up only to decide soon after that we could just break into our friends annex and caravan anyway. He had great comfy beds for us to lay our aching body's on. After getting comfortable, a bottle of vodka mysteriously vanished within an hour or so. Our behavior also took a mysterious swing and we were chatting and having a great time before we knew it.
We ordered fish and chips for dinner from the Scottish girl behind the counter who secretly fancied us.
Next we were off to the pub for a few pints. Literally two. Dave was on his mobile phone for 94% of the time. The bar girl was pretending not to listen to our ramblings, but she was... And she was loving it.
