Journal:
Not much happened today. We were slow to get up after our late night and walked over to the town cafe for breakfast, which we ate at a table outside.
Then it was back to the cabin and some laundry, trip-planning and lazing around until it was lunchtime and another walk across the manicured town park to the same cafe for lunch. It was quite warm by now, but very pleasant sitting in the shade outside the cafe watching the small town world go by (very slowly).
On our way back to the cabin we detoured via the town information centre and exhibits and then the post office, hoping to mail back home a few more things we don't need any more. Alas, it is closed on Tuesday afternoon. I returned to the cabin to do some more trip planning, while Julie walked down to see an old artesian bore that still brings to the surface scalding hot mineralised water, where it runs off and evaporates to leave a landscape of mineral deposits.
After more lazing around, we walked to the town cafe yet again to get dinner and had a welcome early night.
