An early start in search of Wilsons Promontory National Park.... Having finally found it following a slight, unintentional detour and a visit to another nice bakery, we heded to the our camp site at Tidal River, 30km south of the park entry point. The coastline along the way was beautiful, and the campsite, although geared for 500 camp spots, was really wooded and close to the beach. We headed down to Norman Beach for a swim.... the water was the cleanest and c...

After a very noisy night next to the highway, we crossed the border first thing and headed to Mallacoota. Having parked up next to the inlet for a while, and watched the huge number of pelicans flapping around on the water, we took the scenic route along the beautiful coastline to Orbost keeping our eyes wide open for koalas, but we didn't see any, just a few more stiff wombats and rotting kangeroo carcusses!! We pottered around Orbost for a while before headin...

Today we headed from Cooma to Merimbula, the country route. Merimbula was pretty, with lots of oyster farms by the looks of things. Onto Pambula beach before rocking up in Eden.

From Eden, we headed south on the highway to our rest area at Wallagaraugh River.... We got chattin...

We headed to Jindabyne today, through the great dividing range....miles and miles of plains with hundreds of rocky outcrops. First stop was the main (ski) village.

We hired a 9.9hp boat (fast we know!!) and took a scenic drive around the lake!! The top of my legs got very burnt!! We would have gone swimming wa...

Today we headed to Batemans Bay for a round of mini golf... needless to say Tom won, but only by 6 shots!! i embaressed myself at one point by hitting the ball onto the reception roof, and tom got a bit agitated when he took 5 attempts to get a ball in the hole, which only took me one. Following some fish and chips, we headed south again, taking the George Bass highway along the coast to our rest area for the night.... It was horrible and scary and i got eaten a...
