    Nice riding day coming up. Cool and cloudy. Not ideal for photography but makes for relaxed riding. Zilch wind to deal with so maybe worth the ride to Etty Bay for cassowaries Hit the bakery at Babinda. Good smoothies and trifle....maybe a pie tho less expensive to do Hungry Jacks for a burger...

    Got a mini ride in today. Need more of these 40 minute jaunts. Scored another series 6 44 mm Apple Watch with Cellular in excellent condition for a steal. $100 ..snagged it out from under another buyer who could not get there in time. No charger but a bunch of extra bands. I'll make some money...

    Late night with Marc and tires...getting old. He has very little km to go to the city. Why he did not buy glue as well as strings is beyond me. His tire choice was horrid. Midnight snack for me....I had no supper. Tea baby cheese sandwich and Anzac bickkie ... appropriate.

    Watched Conclave.....very timely. Picked up a few Blu Ray including some iMax on the way up to Port Douglas.. Not busy as it's Anzac day and everything closed until 1 pm. Will stay my little sheltered area to see if the rain slides past. Just a super spot to hang out.....better internet speeds...
