    Quick stop off to pick up Arrosto Coffee beans, which we ground as we travelled (for our refillable pods) whilst singing along Bryan Adams, and Johnny finally got the hang of the caravaners wave 👋 .

    It was recommended we stop at the Historic Overland Corner Hotel, and so glad we made the very short detour. What an awesome place. Reminded us of a little of Mervyn’s cottage in Wales.
