Seafood and stews.

Ben's back at the Bay of Fires and eating GOOD food. Back in Melbourne, some new motorcycle gear has been purchased: boots, a bag and waterproof liner. Finally, Uncle Peter and I had lunch in one of Ben's favourite restaurants. Ben was there too.

Late evening update: Camped at Diana's Basin tonight and heading to Launceston tomorrow for another ENT appointment. Spent the past few days visiting a long-term camper at Jeanneret Beach. Dented the fortnightly budget with the purchase of a "telescopic" fishing rod. It's much easier to transport than the old single-piece rod which had to be tied to the bike like a lance.
