Our morning routine, leaving Bright

Queensland Coast 2023
  1. Tom gets up, showers, starts to pack.
  2. Francis, while still in bed, finds a coffee shop (Wild Thyme) on Maps and Trip Advisor with an acceptable rating, sends the location from her phone to the Tesla.
  3. Francis asks Tom to go get her a coffee. “The directions are already loaded in the car”. She’s already done the hard part.
  4. Tom drives the car into town, following the navigation directions. Laughs at the dentist next to the lolly shop.
  5. Tom returns with coffee.
  6. Francis has made Tom a cup of tea in his thermos, and set up breakfast, but realises that we don’t have enough milk.
  7. We pack up everything into the car and check out of the hotel.
  8. We swing by Woolies to get milk, and then down to the Ovens River. Beautiful setting, to sit and watch the ducks.
  9. We use our camping bowls, cutting board, cutlery etc to have a yummo breakfast of cereal and banana. We realise we left one of our two breakfast spoons back in Knoxfield.
  10. We head off east of Bright towards Mount Beauty, through the glorious gateway trees, stopping to take a photo next to a sign warning that there’s no fuel for 107km. Then north towards Yass.

Charging

We left the motel in Bright with 96% charge, after plugging in overnight to a power point. We would have reached 100%, if not for the coffee errand 😉. That’s enough to get to our next accommodation tonight, but we’ll probably charge along the way, anyway, whenever we stop for lunch or a break.
