Well the weather forecast was spot on, it poured all day except around Talem Bend where we got ahead of the front. What a miserable day. I was hoping to go to Penola but gave that away as I had a wet crotch due to the fact that the plastic liner of my pants had ripped. I only discovered this when I took them off in my motel room in Mount Gambier. I'm getting some Duct  tape to repair the pants. Once more the room is looking like a chinese laundry with riding gear festooned all over it hoping it will be dried by the morning with a little help from the hair dryer.

I went out to dinner with Jacki's cousin Michelle and husband Charlie this evening. She is Aunty Michelle to the local aboriginal community and visits the local schools telling the story of Annie Brice and teaching the Boandik language.

Dinner Port Macdonnell style.

    Off to Lorne tomorrow and hopeful the weather won't be as bad as today.
