Friday 4 March 2016
Taking account of the Labour Day long weekend where heavy traffic was expected, we decided not to go to Augusta as originally planned. Bronwyn suggested that we head due east for Nannup instead. Bronwyn and Richard fed us an energy-rich breakfast and before we left, Richard handed us a banana on which he wrote: "For David and Irene, after the second hill"!
True, the ride was on a very undulating road with the Darnell General Store at Rosabrook the only food and water stop. It was a quaint shop, in a time warp. We picked up some fresh rolls, ham, iced coffee and delicious mint chocolate cookies for our energy boost. We arrived at Nannup only to find that it was the weekend of the. Nannup Music Festival. The little town was heaving with people and the campsite was full. The owner took pity and let us have a big site which had been booked for the next day. So we heard the music from all sites - there were 4 or 5 in total going on at the same time. But we slept through the noise as we were knackered.
