Jase and Jess

This trip was quite boring; with nothing but dead straight stretches and no corners for Jase to play on, Ipod is your only friend on these stretches, making the trip slightly more interesting.

Sale was as bland as the name, so although we intended to stop, we pushed on though and kept riding.

It started to spit about 20kms outside of Yarrum , seeing the dark and foreboding clouds we pulled over to pull on our wet weather fashion statements, no less then 5 minutes down the road it started to rain really hard….close one…

We stopped for coffee at the Federal Coffee Palace, which serves the most mouth-watering coffee,

Jase also managed to scare the waitress half to death by loudly pointing out there was sesame seeds on my meal, after reassuring the waitress I wasn’t going to die on the spot, we ate the meals, which were delicious.

The rain eased off and we were on our way to Port Welshpool, after finding our accommodation (which was a lovely little cabin with a deck) we headed off to view Port Welshpools only attraction.

This attraction is called “Long Jetty” it’s a huge jetty that stretches out for what feels like forever, we were hoping to walk on the jetty, but weren’t able.

The jetty sustained a fire in 2003 and was unsafe to use or walk on, and the government had decided that it wasn’t worth fixing so the entire jetty was closed from both commercial use and public use.

We nipped into town (the town consists of a pub, post office, shop and a petrol station) to search for dinner, bought supplies and went back to the cabin for a good feed and settled in for the night, ready for the next stretch.
