[Classic, long-running fast-food chain known for its burgers, fries & shakes.] Stopped in for a Hash Brown, while 'in the area', after looking for a geocache 'just over the paddock' - GC335W9, "I can see Maccas".

Next to the entry door to the McDonalds, is a brass plaque, which reads:
"[McDonald's logo]
Glenrowan
Opened
December 1991"

While here I was able to use the WiFi to log some geocaches found, and update the GPSr with a few more Waymarks to find. Couldn't find any 240 volt power outlet, so it was lucky I had been able to use the inverter in the car to keep the laptop charged.

While they have Drive-Through, why not stop in if you need to use some WiFi.
