PORTLAND VIC
DAY 124
A day around Portland - partly to recover from yesterday and partly because I’ve got some days to cover between here and Melbourne and this is one of them.
Much conversation I have taken pains to overhear today is about the weather.
Yesterday was the coldest in 25 years people in some quarters would have it.
So it wasn’t my imagination after all and things were only mildly warmer today.
Late this afternoon, skies cleared quite rapidly and unexpectedly.
If this points to better conditions tomorrow, I will most welcome it…..
Kilometre number 6000 clicked over yesterday amidst the suffering.
If anything was to be salvaged, then this was it.
Quite a round number 6000 – this is about double what I may have considered a fair effort on this trip and it should creep up on 6500 by the time I reach Melbourne.
Mission accomplished if this is the standard I have set.
11 days it is now until completion and I grow each day with anticipation of meeting my finish line safely and at least partly warm.

I'm assuming your going to use the Great Ocean Road, actually one of the better tourist routes out. Have fun.
