Motorcycle Adventures

Day Three

Today has been a lot of fun!

I sleep well in my comfy bed. I was very pleased to stay in the brand new guest room that Melissa and Mark have just finished building. The bed was very comfortable, and the adjoining private bathroom was really nice. The shower, with all its space and water pressure was an invigorating way to get clean.

After breakfast and a very pleasant visit with family friends who came over for a quick visit, we climbed into the car and went for a drive that took us into the tree-tops!

This was very cool. In a rain forrest about 30 minutes from where Mel and Mark live is a tourist attraction that takes you up into the tree tops using a collection of elevated walkways. It’s a great experience as you walk along above the trees, enjoying the views all around you and learning about the Australian flora.

After our tree top adventure we had a lovely lunch in a restaurant specialising in fine cheese. Then it was off to the local sea-fed lake where we went for a long walk only to get caught in a rain storm! It was great fun. The air was so warm that the rain was a great way to cool off and we felt like kids as we walked amongst the sand dunes and watched the surf. We were completely wet by the time we got back to the car so it was back home to dry off.

Then it was off to dinner on the deck of a pub overlooking the water in. Nearby village, and then back home to enjoy some more conversation and ice wine. It was really lovely!

Then off to bed for another early day of riding.
