Found this on Twitter. I had a dream I was swimming in a ocean of orange soda. Turns out it was just a Fanta Sea.
@sumudu Surely was. The cable car replaced a dangerous & failure-prone chairlift that had been originally built in the 1960s.
About 12 years ago a friend was on the chairlift when it got jammed somehow and stopped. He & his terrified 9-year-old daughter were stuck up there for a few hours until rescuers with an off-road elevating work platform coud get to them.
The new operation uses tried & proven Swiss technology.
Visited a cheesemaker today. Came away with two sheep-milk cheeses & two goats milk cheeses. This place is run by the parents of the team that operates the sheep dairy/cheese factory I visited a month ago. Then I went up & down a big hill in a cablecar.
At the top it's very windy today. The gondolas swing & sway in a gentle rocking motion.
No breakfast tomorrow. I'm having brunch at http://redhillcheese.com.au/main.html. They offer a tasting plate of 8 cheeses & crackers. A month ago I visited their sheep-milk cheese operation at another location & had the tasting plate as a late lunch.
I sound my barbaric #yawp over the roofs of the world. My "barbaric yawp" appears to have laryngitis. No #yawp sound when sending.
Competing supermarkets have my favourite iced coffee on special this week. One sells the 500ml bottle for $2.50, the other wants $3 for the 750ml bottle. No contest.
