A LONG, COLD DAY TO BEAUTIFUL MERIMBULA

This morning we woke up very early in the dark, had the nice provided breakfast, and set off in the dark, cold, rainy fog. We drove further than initially planned following Sean's recommendations in order to avoid road closures, snow, etc. There is a dangerous weather alert out for most of Australia. We initially had to get to Tumut which is the entry town to the Mt Kosciusko National Park. We had coffee there and then set off to Coomo. The weather gradually changed to be colder and at first, there was a little snow, then lots and then it started snowing. It was a little scary but as always Craig was brilliant at driving. Eventually, at Coomo, we had lunch at Rosie's Kitchen which was a Lebanese meal and very delicious. Ultimately the weather improved and we went through many very pretty areas - green valleys and hills. Merimbula is very pretty with turquoise blue seas and our accommodation has a great view, is spacious and lovely to stay at. We shopped at Woolworths and had dinner at home - chicken, salad etc. Lovely to feel like we are in a home again.Read more
