We stopped for a couple of nights in Eumundi at Eumundi Escape B&B.

Dinner at Sala Thai and Imperial Hotel Eumundi, with a walk through the Christmas decorated trees, the night before the place is packed with visitors to the Wednesday (and Saturday) markets.

Time to catch up on some work, overlooking the nature, with some of the nature looking back 🐸.

We tried out the of coffee machine and frother a few times. Not bad! It saved us enough in coffee purchases to pay for charging! 😉

Eumundi is between the Bruce Highway and the train line, so you sometimes try to pick where you’re heading a truck, train or plane 😉.

Charging:

We asked our hosts, when booking on AirBnB, if we could plug in our car while staying. They kindly said that’s fine, and that some other EVs had plugged into a power point somewhere. The electrics on the outside power points seem very good. We had to unplug the small water fountain temporarily.

There is an extra flat payment of $25 for EV charging. That’s more than the under $6 (less than 20c/kWh off peak) it would cost us to fill our half tank (30kWh) at home, or even the $9 if we used a fast charger (30c/kWh) but it’s super convenient to leave our accommodation in the morning with a full tank. In a situation like this, the host usually has no way to know how much electricity the EV actually uses, such as whether we’re filling just 10% or 99% of a tank, so coming up with a payment figure is a bit of a guess.
