👍🏻 100 days adventuring with MancHester on this trip- going to treat ourselves for reaching that milestone 🥰
👎🏻 We’re def feeling some different muscles after a few days of strength/pilates training 😩

Early start to the day saw the Seagull soaring up 610m of elevation to Mt Granya Summit on a 15km trail run 🏃🏼 within the Mt Granya State Park whilst Justine set down the mat for another Pilates sesh 🤸

Then it was pack up, fill up 💦 and back on the road
We’ve loved our base in Tallangatta, so much that what was planned as a 1 night stopover ended up as a 3 night stay.

But now we are officially starting our tour of NSW 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

First stop ………..
Coles 😜 to restock on fruit and veg having crossed the border

Next stop-The Ettamogah Pub, Table Top NSW
We have had this pub on our ‘must visit’ list ✅
It is the original iconic pub (built 1987) in a series inspired by the cartoons of Ken Maynard and feature distinctive, cartoonish sloping walls with a truck perched on the roof.
There is camping available on site but we headed on our way after popping in for a drink 🍻, looking around👀, signing the visitors book ✍🏻 and having a good chat with barman Amos 💬, mainly about trail running 😜

As we drove through Yerong we both immediately said ‘no ye right’ 🤣, think it’s having the same stupid sense of humour that keeps us together …. or perhaps others away 🤔

Final stop-The Rock
We’ve stopped here as we wanted to visit The Rock Nature Reserve - Kengal Aboriginal Place and hike to The Rock summit lookout ⛰️. But felt it was way too hot when we arrived (32 degrees) to embark on what we believe is a pretty strenuous hike 🥵, so we’ve decided to camp up and tackle the hike in the morning when it’s a little cooler 🙏🏻

Nothing better than sitting back after setting up camp, relaxing and listening to the leaves rustling in the breeze 🍃, the birds singing their songs 🦜 and a generator running in the distance 😠- let’s hope it doesn’t go all night 🤞🏻Read more
