Fish n Chips Travel the world: Day 14 Coles Bay

We have a magnificent breakfast starting with porridge, then David had scrambled egg and sausage and I had scrambled egg and smoked salmon with tea and coffee it was awesome and Sally, Bob, Heike & George to share it with.

We stopped at the showground this morning for morning tea after a drive through Elephant Pass not sure why it's called Mount Elephant but it's an interesting winding road and the weather is perfect. I'm in a bit of a silly mood this morning. At the showground there is a chatty couple from Geelong Vic who are travelling around in a tent camper and waiting for their tent to dry in the sun. They tell us the fog has just cleared and was quite thick.

We ride towards St Helens and from there ride out to Binalong Bay (my silly mood really kicks in as I sing a song about Binalong Bay LOL) it is on the Bay of Fires, the rocks have this bright red lichen on them which looks like fire from a distance, we are only there a few minutes and as we return to the bike who should pull into the carpark but Steve & Delores!!!! so funny!

Next it's on to Derby for lunch we stop and get some fuel and then head across the road to the Tavern for lunch only to be told that the kitchen is closed noooooo!!! LOL the woman behind the counter suggests the cafe down the road. We have toasted sandwiches which are very tasty. A trip to the loo up the back of the property reveals a very swish loo for a country dunny!!

Then we ride up the Sideling Rd to Scottsdale it is very very winding but a great ride we scrape on the right quite often no biggie but one corner we grind on the left not sure what we hit but it was nasty! LOL The next stop is Westbury and our B&B Fitzgerald Inn which we find after a few little diversions ha ha. It's an Inn that was built in the 1830's quite beautiful. For dinner tonight we have steak sandwiches and lovely desserts David has an apple tart/vanilla bean ice cream and I have chocolate delice/vanilla bean ice cream. YUM! chocolate delice is hazelnut sponge 'disc' with chocolate mousse covered in ganache OMG!
While talking to the hostess we find out about Hollybank Treetop Adventures (8 ziplines thru the forest!) and decide to book for tomorrow. It's a 3 hour tour with 2 guides it sounds like sooo much fun! we are booked for 9am so we have had to organise all our stuff tonight so we can have a quick brekky and go go go woohoooo!!
