galah_centralInki, the drama queen, took the car ride to the cattery in his usual dramatic fashion. However once we got there he was suddenly sitting forward in his cage, calm as you please, waiting to be carried into the luxury resort.
We were then able to pack in peace without gratuitous pussycat assistance or having to load the car while keeping watch for escapees.
There was an uneventful drive, punctuated by a stop for pies at Baker's Hill, to our cabin for the week at Beacon.
Today was a drive down to Bencubbin for morning tea ... except KC's Cafe was closed due to a power outage because Western Power is replacing a pole in town. So we continued on to Mukinbudin and sat down at the cafe there. Then, off to various spots near the town to see some gnammas and a good spread of everlastings and spider orchids.
Weather is mostly fine and pleasant but the wind can show teeth when clouds cover the sun. We have managed to book for a 4 hour wildflower trip next Monday with included lunch.
