After a long drive from Bright, through Yackandandah and Yass, we arrived in Berry, checked into the Berry View Motel, then drove around the corner to the Berry Bowling Club for dinner.
A ute parked adjacent to us in the motel car park illustrates that some vehicles are just too big for current car parking. We had to reverse in at an angle to avoid scraping along the ute’s towball.
Next morning, we popped into the local IV Coffee outlet, appropriately adorned with ivy.
Then onward to the Fully Charged Show Everything Electric expo in Sydney.
Charging
Since we were parking at the Berry Bowling Club for dinner anyway, we plugged into The NRMA fast charger on site. This would normally take about ten seconds, but the NRMA app had forgotten my credit card details, so I had to re-enter them. It also had some user interface oddities that prolonged the experience. Much of the app appears in web portals, which is not a coherent experience. I’d love to make a better app for them, specifically for EV charging.
But, of course we don’t think about all that while driving. The car says what percentage battery we’ll have when we arrive and, if necessary, routes us through chargers on the way there.
