Holiday Ride: Day 6 Bairnsdale-Merimbula
It’s so easy to get used to sleeping in, eyes open, morning Sweety…ahhh it’s 8am….noice! Stepping back in time again in the dining room for breakfast at The Riversleigh. The old time dining music in the background with the settings, you could close your eyes and pretend you’re back in the 30’s dressed to the …

Holiday Ride: Day 5 Bairnsdale
Yawn, yawn!! Hi Sweety, is it time to get up, already. What a wonderful nights sleep, in a comfy bed that Karls feet don’t hang out the bottom of.

Date ride with Dudley
With Karl away for the weekend, and as a reward to myself I went off on a little ride on Dudley. I’d decided that heading south and Jamberoo was going to be the destination – I didn’t even program the GPS, thought I’d just wing it….OMG! Never been to Woronora Dam, passed the sign heaps …
