Downtown Cowra - where the foodies are moving to be near the bread basket of the country, I'm told... One of the stargazing telescopes at Darby's Falls Observatory The Hubble it's not, but there are some pretty powerful enthusiasts' 'scopes' behind this fence ... WHAT A TRIP! Seeing Saturn through a "20 inch Newtonian scope, omni directional ball mounted and built to a 10th of a wave, which is research quality"... got that? - Darby's Falls Observatory, Cowra, NSW. The start of an easy 40km day.

Australian Sales Rep Peter Berra showcases Fay Keast's tikit. Pssssht! Colin Freestone is a dedicated practitioner of yoga. Stay fit 'n' flexible on a Friday! It's a good idea to stretch when you stop.

Colin heads for Darby's Falls. "Town of 25 people and a dried up creek," says Colin - but a great place to see Saturn from by night. Bike Friday Club of Canberra well represented by Warren. The Alaskan connection! Mandy and Tom's rented 'Wicked' campervan. Do people get hugs? They sure do, says Tom. Wine, tea and scone tasting at the Mill Winery across the street from the campground. One of the tire eating 'catheads', pert of the bindy family. No matter which way it falls, there's always a spike pointing up - at your tire.
