Day 2: Fri 17 Sep - Wondai

Cool start to the day, warmed up nicely

After breakfast, we rode to Murgon for mornos. It was mostly down hill all the way there, with a headwind. We found coffee and cakes at the bakery and consumed them at one of the park tables and benches. After mornos, we did a small tour of Murgon before heading back to Wondai. The uphill didn't seem as bad, maybe because we had a strong'ish tailwind?

After a little rest and another coffee, we explored Wondai; art gallery, op shop, antiques and collectibles (aka junk), woodwork shop, visitor info centre, heritage museum, and the shops. A very late lunch was had after that, then a rest, and a sit and chat session. 

Homemade pizzas for dinner over a chat with the neighbours. We came home to watch the footy, however, the only channel we could not tune into was Channel 9, so read, and went to bed early.
