Joe, Mick, Colin & Mat dressed for dinner
A good run today (4th) with a pre breakfast start to the Sorrento Ferry. Breakfast at a lovely little bakery in Queenscliffe while waiting for the ferry. Great twisty roads out of Lorne to finish the Great Ocean Road. We saw numerous dolphins on the ferry crossing. It was a good thing that the riders had mounted their bikes before the ferry docked because it was a little rough & the bikes would all have been down like a row of dominos.
Off to the Salvos shop for tonights final dinner clobber. What a fun time we had shopping. Not only the shopkeepers but the customers as well were helping us & all were in gales of laughter as the boys found 'suitable frocks' & Chris & I bought shirts, ties & jackets for ourselves.
On the bikes again for a non event ride except for the roads in South Gippsland that consisted of more sweeping & twisty hills, up & down.
We arrived at Lakes Entrance later than we hoped then off to Chris' room to 'dress' for dinner. Last in for a 'fashionably late entrance' for maximum impact. Boy did we succeed. Everyone clapped & cheered with a standing ovation & oodles of photos taken. We were laughing so hard my head muscles hurt & tears of laughter were running down our faces. As Jack said, we “done good”.
A fantastic night with a few teary moments as we realised our surreal adventure was fast coming to an end, especially when Aaron's email to Sue Walter was read out.
It is sad to think that tomorrow sees the end of a magic time in all our lives with some new friendships destined to last a lifetime.
