This time round in Sydney we wanted to wrap up and finish off all the loose ends we had missed on our first visit. We took a trip up to Bondi Junction to get some much needed shopping done for our trip to New Zealand. We thought it wouldnt be right without taking another visit to our fave China Town's food court for some beautiful chinese food, mmm!!! Its seriously so so nice here!! A trip to sydney isnt complete without a stroll over the famous Harbour Bridge, ...

So we spent the afternoon going for a swim, sauna and steam at Thredbo resort centre, which was nice after such a bumpy ride through the Alpine National Park. After such a great relax, we drove back through Jinderbyn for a nice coffee and cake - what a perfect day!! :) Cle...

It was named the cathedral fire as this was the name of the area where the fire started. Due to the fire and rehabilitation programmes etc alot of the park was closed to the public as the fire had only b...

To break up the long journey back to Melbourne, we stopped at Port Fairy and took a short walk to Griffiths Island Reserve.. a beach walk which led up to a small lighthouse - really good to stretch our legs though. The drive up to Melbourne was a long slog.. we saw a bushfire on the way which was pretty crazy. It actually looked like a huge puffy cloud, but since it was so low, it didnt move and only grew in size we eventaully caught on it was a bushfire! Strange...
