We were up early this morning and we were on the road by 7:30 the earliest start for a long time. Due to the fact that we were in cabin last night and had everything ready to go. The day started off overcast, and quite humid. We had a couple of hills to climb out of Batemans Bay and then the rest of the route was undulating. Most of the hills were very manageable, but because of the wet roads, we were not always able to get the downward momentum before going up the other side. The weather was damp and humid with some rain, about two hours into the ride the sun came out and we arrived in Ulladulla in the sunshine. Although the forecast was for rain overnight we decided to camp.
Because of our early start we were finished before noon. The campsite is close to the harbor and the downtown of Ulladulla, which is very handy for shopping.
The problem with wet, rainy days, is that you don’t get the camera out to take photos. Although the route today was mainly through forested roads and not very scenic. Ulladulla is quite a large commercial town and apart from the harbor is not very scenic. Apologies to anyone from Ulladulla who might be reading this.
The rain started again at 5:30, we will have a wet night in the tent. Hopefully, tomorrow we will be able to get the tent dry. Tomorrow we are staying at another warm showers in Falls Creek (just south of Nowra).
