    Kingston SE

    2024年1月28日〜31日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    What a great town. We mainly stopped here to pick up some mail. The RV site was excellent. Just across the road from the water. No swimming was a bit cold, plus a great white has been spotted hanging around.

    We just chilled out here. Got some deep cleaning done in the van, plus a much need haircut for me.    もっと詳しく

    Mount Gambier - Lakes

    2024年2月1日〜4日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    We are revisiting Mount Gambier... spent time here on our first trip to SA. Oh, so long ago. It's a very pretty town with lots of green spaces.

    Camped at the showgrounds again. Same as last time.

    Explored the lakes today.
    The Blue Lake is stunning. Last time, we did the hike right around. Feeling a bit lazy 😴 so drove around instead.

    I do love the Rook Wall & Lookout. Looks like something out of an old castle. The veiw over the Blue Lake is great.

    Then, down to Valley Lake & Conservation Park. Beautiful parkland here. Plus, the conservation park is nice to stroll through. Spotted so sweet wallabies.    もっと詳しく

    Mount Gambier - Cave Gardens

    2024年2月2日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    On day 2, we revisited the Cave Garden and Umpherston Sinkhole. Both are amazing.

    There is normally a night light show at the Cave Garden, but it was not running due to technical problems. One of the other sinkholes was closed. Have a tidy up.

    The van got a new set of tyres while we were here.    もっと詳しく

    Carpenter Rocks

    2024年2月3日〜5日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    Have had a couple of nice days at Carpenter Rocks. Camped at Admella Reserve. Massive grassy area across the road from the beach.

    Had some lovely walks along the beach. Not warm enough to swim. Drove out to the Lighthouse. Had a yummy fish and chip dinner from the local store.

    There was a very pretty pink seaweed washed up on the beach. Hadn't seen it before. Apparently, it's the preferred seaweed to feed to cattle. Constantly learning new things.    もっと詳しく

    Eight Mile Creek

    2024年2月5日〜7日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    We free camped here overnight on our way to Portland Vic.
    Was a nice grassy spot, sheltered from the wind. You could camp on either side of the creek. A short stroll to the beach. Unfortunately, the beach was a bit yuck. Lots of dead Wobbygong sharks everywhere. Plus, the beach was thick with seaweed. Made for a very smelly mess. They think the sharks died after the massive rain falls recently in the area. The fresh water washing into the sea from the creek lowered the salinity.

    The other interesting thing was a massive flock of black swans. Over 60. Have never seen them on the open oeacn before

    Didn't take any photos. Forgot to take my photo when we checked out the beach...wasn't keen to go back down.    もっと詳しく

    Portland

    2024年2月6日〜10日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    We have crossed over into Victoria...our 5th state.

    Currently in Portland. Free camping at the RV site. Very nice.

    Had a drive along the coastline this afternoon. I was very excited to find a Gannet colony. The only one on mainland Australia. Plus, it breeding season, so they are here. Even more exciting ... we are doing a free tour of the colony with the rangers. So get to go inside the gated area and get up close.

    There is a stunning Lighthouse out on Cape Nelson. With all the charming workers cottages. These can be rented out. There is even a nice coffee shop.

    It is a very nice town with lots of lovely old buildings.    もっと詳しく

    Treloar Rose Farm - Portland

    2024年2月7日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C

    I was in Rose Heaven here. What a beautiful place to just stroll around and smell the roses 🌹

    We stopped at the strawberry farm as well. The best strawberries we have had for years. So full of flavour. An added plus. They make their own ice cream...yum.もっと詳しく

    Point Danger Gannet Colony

    2024年2月7日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    We were very lucky to be here at the same time as the Gannets. What a treat to be able to veiw them up close. Such elegant birds. They have a wing span of 2 metres. And mate for life. Around 25 years. There were a number of chicks still here they are usually all gone by the end of March.

    Not forgetting the red belly black snake that crossed our path.    もっと詳しく

    Cape Bridgewater

    2024年2月8日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    Did the short drive from Portland to Cape Bridgewater today. What a stunning spot.

    ✔️ best beach we have seen in a while. Even if it was too cold to swim.
    ✔️ fantastic walk to the Petrified Forest and Blowholes.
    ✔️ Bridgewater lakes. A short drive inland. It's a very pretty spot to paddle a canoe, swim, or picnic. Had a large group of school children arrive at the same time as us.
    ✔️ Tarragal Caves near the lakes. Was a very steep climb up. But a great veiw. We keep forgetting we aren't as agile as we used to be. Took it very slow coming down.
    🦭 you can also veiw a seal colony at Cape Bridgewater. As it's a 2.5 hr walk with a high leave of fitness required. We decided maybe not for us.

    An excellent day out 😊    もっと詳しく

    Portland

    2024年2月13日〜15日, オーストラリア ⋅ 🌬 21 °C

    Back to Portland for 2 nights. We are a bit smitten with this area. There is so much to see and do. Did the drive out on the jetty. Was great you can park up and fish from your car.
    Visited the Botanical Gardens. The dahlias were magnificent. The gardens were lovely to stroll around.
    Had to go back to the Strawberry Farm to stock up. And visited the local koala.    もっと詳しく

    Great Ocean Road continued

    2024年2月17日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    Had a fantastic day revisiting the Western end of the Great Ocean Road today. Started grey and cloudy. Then the sun broke through to a lovely day

    We started going down to the beach at Gibson's Steps. We didn't do this when we were here years ago... it was wet and windy. I'm so
    pleased we did it this time.

    Then, just up the road to the 12 Apostles.

    On to Port Campbell for lunch and a stroll. We stayed in the van park here last time. It's a very pretty spot with a nice swimming beach.

    We left our favourite Lock Ard Gorge till last. When we were here last, you could go down steps to the Gorge. These are now closed off as in a dangerous condition. Lock Ard Gorge is the sight of a tragic ship wreck. Only 2 survivors. A young lad and girl. They washed through the narrow entrance to the Gorge and up onto the beach. The young lad climbed the cliffs to find help.

    The only downside to this beautiful area is the bus loads of visitors. We are no longer used to crowds. My tolerance for people that block up areas taking 100s of selfies is at all time low. Have become a grumpy old woman.    もっと詳しく

    Meredith Park

    2024年2月19日〜28日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    Free camping at Meredith Park just east of Colac for 2 nights. It's a lovely spot on Colac Lake.
    Just finished setting up, and a squadron of pelicans drifted past. What a lovely welcome.
    Checked out the windmill park at Beeac just up the road.
    Had a nice stroll around the Botanical Gardens in Colac. Down the far end of the lake where we camped. We can see the light down here at night from the campground. We also visited the very impressive war memorial in Colac.

    Off to Geelong this morning. Then, over to Tassie on Friday.    もっと詳しく

    Geelong to Devonport

    2024年2月23日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

    Heading to state #6

    An early start Friday morning to board the Spirit of Tasmania. The new terminal at Geelong is very nice. Plus seemed a lot more organised than the old one.
    The day trip over was excellent. A little swell after we left Port Phillip. Enjoyed doing the trip during the day. Not that you see much beside the ocean. Travelled down to Railton after we disembarked. Love free camp area.

    Just ducked back up to Devonport the next day to shop. We were keen to go to the Farmers Market at the showgrounds to pick up fresh vegies. Where very disappointed. Only one stand with a few sad look veggies. Mostly just food and coffee vans. Back to woolies to shop.

    We did a quick drive up to the Lighthouse and a walk around while in town. Feeling a bit tired so headed back to the van for a restful afternoon.    もっと詳しく

    Narawntapu National Park

    2024年2月25日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    Our first Tassie NP. The fees here are so reasonable. $38 for a years pass.

    Was a beautiful farm land and forests to arrive at our destination. Picked up some honey on the way home. Just missed out on the new potatoes fresh from the farm.

    Did the bird hide walk at the NP. So much wildlife. Spotted our first Tassie Devil. To fast to get a photo. Adorable Pademelon wallabies everywhere.

    Then, down for a walk along Bakers Beach. An excellent walking beach.
    A picnic lunch at Griffiths Point up the east end of the beach.

    The days have been fantastic so far.    もっと詳しく

    Tasmanian Arboretum

    2024年2月26日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Another beautiful day in Tassie. Having a great time heading out exploring.

    Today was the Tasmania Arboretum. So lovely just strolling around enjoying the sunshine. No luck spotting any platypus in the lake. There is some living there and can often be spotted during the day.

    On the way home, we picked up some local cider and fruit and veg. Granny Smith's for 50c a kilo. Apple crumble for dessert.    もっと詳しく

    Honeycomb Campground

    2024年2月28日〜3月5日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

    Moved camp today. Free camping in the Mole Creek Karst National Park. Not far from Mole Creek.

    Explored a couple of caves at the camp site this afternoon. Feeling very adventurous. The creek ran through both caves, so a bit of paddling was required. No sign posts are maps anywhere. Just had to wing it.

    Had a well-earned hot cross bun and coffee when we made it back to camp.    もっと詳しく
