Sunday 30th - Drove down through the South Grampians to the coast this morning. The National Park is beautiful with quite a few mountains to climb. There seems to be a lot more trees on the hills in this area of the park. We stopped at Port Fairy and had lunch at the beach and then took a walk through the town. Being Christmas/New Year time on the coast - it is very busy.

We have camped at a council camping site at Killarney between Port Fairy and Warrnambool. Very lucky to get in as the sign said 'full' but we managed to find the man who is managing the site and he gave us a spot. It is right on the beach and we have the playground just in front of us which is good for Gracie.

Monday 31st - New Years Eve!! We spent the day at Warrnambool looking around the town, the beach and playing at Lake Pertobe adventure playground. This is a rally big playground that has lots of different activities in it. We went through a small maze and Gracie and Steve went on a high flying fox. We all then went on a motor boat around a lake with Gracie steering,

We spent the evening in Port Fairy to welcome in the new year. There was a big street parade, a carnival and a band playing - all before the fireworks at midnight. Gracie played on the clowns and won a necklace, went on a huge jumping castle with slides and the dodgems with Dad!

Goodbye 2012 - Here we come 2013!
