Day 6 Barriere to Avola

Today we tried something different with respect to fueling the engines; we decided to bike for a couple of hours to Little Fort for breakfast. That seemed to work quite well so we will try that again when the travel conditions are right. After looking at the elevation profile for today, we thought that we had a sharp hill about 2/3 of the way.  We never found it; it must have been an illusion that we were happy to accept. At Clearwater I spotted a DQ so we stopped and had soft ice cream cones. They were big and filling; not the kind that Ben and Gabriella would like. Just for Boppa. Some 125 km later we pulled into the only accommodation in Avola- the Log Inn Pub. We picked Avola because 125 km is a good distance.  We have a cabin, and the showers and bathrooms are in the main building. Nevertheless it works; we had showers and sauna before eating. Our host Larry is a really nice guy and he made us great burgers and a salad. 

Biking conditions were very good today as it was warm enough but never hot. The road was good and the traffic was busy but not overbearing - I counted 28 vehicles in 10 minutes.
