20 (feels like 17) - 22 deg C, cloudy with a bit of sun, and a not so breezy breeze
After early morning walks and breakfast we both went into town to do some wandering, Wendy on foot, Greg on the bike. Some of the road into town is not to Wendy's liking, no verge and frequented by large trucks and lots of traffic. Greg has no fear nor brains, not sure which is worse. Not the most interesting town we've visited, but worth a couple of hours nevertheless. Wendy finished off with some grocery shopping.

Back at the van for lunch and a rest before the afternoon saw Wendy doing some crocheting while Greg went for another ride with Bob. This time they ventured out along Springs Road, which supports a vast variety of tropical fruit orchards. It all looked very well maintained and prosperous.
Late afternoon stretches/exercises completed, it was time for pre-dinner drinks before dinner of leftovers which were more yummy than last night.
