We all made it thorough the night again the place looked fine in the sunshine, some times coming in late to a strange place sets the tone it is not always right. Fair enough there were some people with strange habits in the motel but all OK. still was glad to pack up.
The town square is being set up for some celebration huge marques have been erected some of it was cordoned off however we were waved through to park. Breakfast in the sunshine in front of the coffee shop. We ordered a croissant sandwich which I think they had to send out for. Once we got them it was huge could have shared.
Incredible ride again we see parts of the country you would not believe exist.
Having carried four litres of oil for two days finally found a hotel car park suitable, as look would have it the rubbish bin contained a gallon plastic bottle to drain the oil into.
Following a warning from Lindsay not to drop the drain plug into the hot oil in the container I promptly dropped the plug into the hot oil and in the process spilled oil on the floor of the car park. After some fishing about got the plug and washer and completed the job.
Town square was hectic tonight, there is a huge market surrounding the cathedral with all types of stalls. We eat outside watching the goings on.
Every restaurant appears to have guards, there are children selling crafts they are pretty good ask once and move on if they hang around they get chased away however they do not pester.
