Trip down

On my trip down the traffic was lower than a peak hour but I did manage to follow a guy near the Ski Roo who had a sash buckle for his boot lock a bit of drastic measure for replacing a broken boot lock. Also as I approached the town centre there were more and more small trucks with tailers...
