Our Tesla’s Autopilot slowed to 90km/h on the Hume Highway, when the heavens opened. I

t still maintained excellent driving, amidst slowing cars and speeding trucks.

On our way to Holbrook for the night, we stopped for dinner at Oliver's Real Food Gundagai, and enjoyed their new Mexican and vegetarian pockets, with a smoothie.

The rain cleared to show “Jesus Sky”, with the sun’s rays coming through the cloud openings.

Charging:

We set the Tesla navigation to stop at the Gundagai Tesla Superchargers, behind Oliver’s. This also allows the car to “precondition” the battery for faster charging. When we arrived, we noticed that the general EV chargers (by Chargefox and The NRMA) were vacant, so we plugged into one of those. This is half the price of the Tesla chargers, but also allowed us to keep an eye on our cat, in the car, in dog mode. I commented in PlugShare that we’d be happy to move if anyone needed the charger, since one of the three was faulty.

Just as we finished eating, a third car arrived – a family in a BMW EV. So, we ran out to tell them that the third charger is faulty. We hopped in our car and drove off, so they could use it.
