 The many crossings of Breakfast Creek were commenced at 10.35 and after a journey without incident we breasted the last steep hill and reached Carlon's at 12.25 p m. The many crossings of Breakfast Creek were commenced at 10.35 and after a journey without incident we breasted the last steep hill and reached Carlon's at 12.25 p m.

 There were quite a few bushwalkers here, but owing fo the reputation that Carlon's are establishing for the quantity and quality of the 'eats',there was some congestion and our little crowd didn't sit down till 1.50 pm. This was a big moment of the trip. While Max clad in blue pyjama suit, had lain on his lonely bed of bracken - hollow logs are obsolete these days - his lips murmured "Carlons". He was a short price favourite, but unfortunately he had made at breakfast a pancake consisting of half a billy of batter. Even a super-eater like Max has off days. Jack and I went through each course twice but that vegetarian wonder Dot, who lives on stewed nettles and ground-berries - oh yeah? - after having two helpings of MEAT, vegetables, three sorts of pudding, scones, raisin loaf, jam and cream, thoughtfully cleaned out the cream pots with a spoon. There were quite a few bushwalkers here, but owing fo the reputation that Carlon's are establishing for the quantity and quality of the 'eats',there was some congestion and our little crowd didn't sit down till 1.50 pm.

 After having a meal in the town, we stretched ourselves on the floor of the waiting room. In the warm fire's gleam some of us probably saw pictures of Carlon Head; the last steep slope of Cloudmaker; the sunlight sparking on a Kowmung rapid. We drowsed, and along came the mail train. After having a meal in the town, we stretched ourselves on the floor of the waiting room.
