Leaving Sydney
26 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
Just after dark he came home, unemployed and redy to go. And off we went. A long drive later we turned down a long and dark gravel road in The Blue Mountains and found a campsite full of people. Moved all our stuff to the front seat and crawled down the warm blankets.Leia mais

Blue Mountains
27 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C
The trip started with a sunrise from above the forrest and a warm meal.
By a number of gravel roads and a rapidly decreasing amount of fuel we found some beautiful non-touristy walks. Finished that part on the hanging rock above forrest and low mountains before ticking off the three sisters and sneakingly getting a hot shower.
Lessons learned: no more gravel roads, and no more gambling on the fuel. We would later learn that both were empty promises.Leia mais

Bombo Headlands
28 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
On an early morning we got some cool shots on the drone of the sea cliff bridge just south of Sydney. And then we started for real. Drove to the first stop on our list, had a good lunch with a view and walked around the beach in Bombo Headlands befor continuing south.
A short drive later we saw a touristy blowhole in Kiama; that's waves forced under the cliffs so strong that it creates a tall pile of water.
At night we were forced to change plans because of military practicing in Honeymoon Bay, but we adapted and found another nice spot for the night in Jervis Bay, perfectly placed for a nice sunrise and getting our feet cold in that beautiful water.Leia mais

Jervis Bay
29 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
We needed to finish the car, so after brekkie and coffee on the rocks just next to the car, vi found a nice and quiet spot for just that. Him being the hard worker and me on the computer.
A short drive later we entered a national park and did all the short walks, and went swimming in a small secluded bay.Leia mais

Rocks of Australia
30 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
All the named rocks down this coastline has their name for a reason. We chased the Camel Rock, the Horse Head Rock, and the Australian Rock on the way to spot seals in the sun.
We cooked a nice dinner while still in daylight and found a decent spot for the night a lot later after a dark drive.Leia mais

Eden Tower
1 de maio de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Changing plans we headed west and skipped the rest of the coastline to Melbourne after seeing a tower build by an ambitious man looking for whales to hunt. By a short off road walk we found a way down to beautiful cliffs covered in red.
Turning inland we had a long mountain drive, yet again gambling too much on the fuel, but made it to a secluded village just in time. Night spend by a platypus river, and we saw one quickly surfacing in the dark.Leia mais

Rain in Mount Koschiuszku National Park
2 de maio de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Still no platypus in the morning, and we had no more water, so we drove right away to make it for the top of Australia.
The weather worked against us, and we ended up spending most of the day in the only open café in Thredbo, working and staying warm and dry.
A short walk by a river next to the campground became very short due to maintenance work, but that we didn't get caught in the second shower.
Finished up with our first cold and rainy cooking, but loads of tea and a warm van got ua a long way.Leia mais

Top of Australia
3 de maio de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C
We packed up a wet car and put on layers. Plenty of layers. An expensive chair lift took us up the maintain, and we did obligatory four hour walk to the peak of Mt. Kosciuszko. With surroundings reminding of Scotland and matching weather it was a beautifull walk, but the clouds catched up on us on the peak, making it even colder and blocking a properly quite unique view.
Back down we warmed up with a soup and made our way out of the National Park.Leia mais

Ned Kelly
4 de maio de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
Resting our legs we took a long drive, stopped by a historical wooden bridge just next to the road on the way, to end up in the village where Ned Kelly was captured some 100 years ago. We learned a bit of history before continuing the drive south to find another one of the mountains and another national park.Leia mais

Mt Buller
5 de maio de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C
In an early morning we drove uphill, only to find a dead skiing village slowly getting ready for winter. A freezing cold stopped us from doing the summit hike, and closed roads stopped us from bringing the car to the summit, but the view was nice anyway. A later stop over in a rain forrest ended up in a challenging walk looking for a lost drone. But we found it!
After sunset we found a dark and empty campground hidden inside the forrest and hid inside the warm car.Leia mais
