Blackwater Blues: Friday, August 30th

Questions show the mind's range, and answers its subtlety. -Joseph Joubert, essayist (1754-1824) 

Swedish masseuse relaxing before leaving for Neffiès!

Woke at 5:00 am to find Cora Lee on sofa, reading! Back to bed to fall asleep until 8:30 am! Needed an extra hit of java to shake cobwebs out of my head. Will head out for a ride, (Am shooting for 77 K but will play things by ear en route), and then back to pack, clean house, etc., in preparation for tomorrow's drive to London. Spudnik grooming himself on chair next to me as I write!

Last ride in Cornwall. Longest to date so veddy, veddy pleased!

Now time to clean bike and disassemble then use my new soft case carry bag. Will start to pack car, for trip to London domani, before dinner. Overlefts but looking forward to them as know thye'll be even better today! Spudnik has been guarding my laptop wireless mouse ever since I left around 1:00 pm!

Enjoying a lovely Italian lunch on the old square in Tallin. What a beautiful Medieval city!
We have also,had fab weather all through Amsterdam, Scandanavia, and Russia.

St Petersburg was an amazing visit for 3 days, and had seen the Peter the Great exhibit just a week ago at the Petit Hermitage in Amsterdam- just good luck and timing.

Have met the winery owner from Galli Winery near Bendigo on our cruise. Will get to know them a little better over a wine or 2...Are you familiar with it? They have a cellar door and restaurant, about 10,000 cases per year, mainly Shiraz and Chard.




A day at sea on the Baltic tomorrow, then to Gdansk, Poland, Germany, and finish with a couple of days in Copenhagen before the journey to France. Our best to everyone! Cheers,
Grogg & Lurch
