from warragul to eden which is a small town on the eastern coast is a 450km desolate stretch east.. it took me about 4 days to reach eden and along the way i barely spent any money at all.. im going to do a post soon about traveling cheaply so i wont really get into all the details, but involves lots of peanut butter, camping in the middle of the woods, pourage, and libraries..
when i pulled into a town called cann river one morning i was in dire need of a shower and the petrol station had a wonderful toilet with hot water... so i locked the door filled the sink with warm soapy eucalyptusy water (im very picky about my soap because i dont really trust white guys in lab coats and poor marketing).. i must not have heard a patron try to open the door while i was bathing in the sink because the man working at the gas station, probably in his 60s, opened the door with a key only to find me standing there completely naked washing myself with paper towels!! i think he yelled something along the lines of 'jesus f#@$ing christ mate!' and stormed out in an angry rage.. i quickly got dressed and apologized to the patron who had been waiting.. i thought about going inside and explaining what i was doing and that i hadnt had a shower in four days, but i thought better of it and got on my bike and left before any sort of law enforcement came.. definitely not the most embarrassing moment in my life, but it was up there.. although i did find it quite funny once i was about 5km up the road...
