Loved how every interaction with an Australian person centred around beer :0) And your photo is wonderful, exactly as you describe. Very glad you are clean and in a bed at the end! What a journey! And another part still to go!

Wonderful descriptions! You are a genius at describing so richly a place, in only a few words so I am hardly aware of reading before I am there. I loved " delicate pink gems of wild rose" they are the hedgerow treasure for me, too :0)
so many lovely lines!
