15-26 degC
A relatively early wake-up after the last few sleep-ins. After two loads of washing and breakfast, we were on the bikes a little after 8:30am, riding out to West Sale first to make up time to get to the Information Centre and Art Gallery at or after opening time of 9am. We arrived at the Centre and Gippsland Art Gallery (GAG) just after 9am and spent a good 40 minutes perusing the art, or what is supposed to be art. We were actually surprised with what we did see though. It was then time to make our way to Redd Catt Café in the main street to meet up with a friend of Wendy’s from Army days in Darwin – Jayne Tauschke. Jayne had seen Wendy’s FB post last night about having dinner at Jack Ryan’s and contacted Wendy to arrange a meeting. It’s always nice to meet up with friends when you are so far from home.
After a two-hour mornos, we said good-bye to Jayne, headed off and rode out to the swing bridge, the oldest operational swing bridge in Australia, being intact and unaltered. We were getting a tad hungry by this stage so made our way home and had lunch and a rest.
Greg
then went back out on the cycle path to the swing bridge as he had seen some
feral blackberries on our first ride and he wanted to harvest them. He came back with three “Tupperware”
containers-full of them!! Wendy cleaned up from lunch and brought the washing
in. It was then time to hit the shops for more groceries.
