Does this rock look like a grumpy man?

Wispy clouds helped keep the morning cool.

A lovely wide, smooth section of road.

It was great. I was flying along like I was on bitumen. It felt like magic.

Until a big truck goes past.

I could have ridden further today but I'm not sure where I would camp. I don't think there are any more river crossings.

This place is perfect and there are no salties, only freshies. I had a quick refreshing swim.

Whistling kites were soaring above me.
