The 1 hour time difference is great. I’m up early and it feels like it’s late.

Leaving the campsite I searched for a coffee stop. And as I swung into the cafe. Karl was sitting there. So we enjoyed a coffee together. He had broken another spoke and was waiting for a bike shop to open.

I scooted off in search of pastry and sweetness and found a bakery that had small pie things, with unknown fillings and a couple of rolls. I stuffed them in my pockets for later.

Once again the road is flat and pretty uneventful. The towns are frequent and unfortunately a bit nondescript. Stopping for coffee and sat and ate my pies that were delicious, the chocolate ones were just too sweet.

Then I was sitting relaxing in the shade and noticed the campsite I was hoping to stay in was only 13kms away. When I got to it the guy told me he had only been open 3 days and there was no resturant or shop. He guided me to the next door site that when I arrived it was heaving, and very pleasant.   I looked at the time and it was only 12.15. That really is an early stop.
