Today was a bitch for me... even with perfect weather and a tailwind everything seemed to be an effort. We made it to Redhill, about 20 miles short of Port Pirie for a total of 53 miles. However, we managed to find a hidden gem in the form of the Eureka Hotel! This hotel was built in 1878 and looks like it was plucked right off a movie set. It has a rustic bar, community toilets, balcony, the works. Redhill has only 200 or so residents, and used to be the end of the line for the railroad. Of course when the end of the line was moved to Port Pirie the town suffered.
As it turns out, we are the only guests tonight in the hotel... we had an excellent meal from the kitchen and of course a pint to add to the atmosphere!
