2 days of fun.


Hi lovelies,

We have again had a couple of lovely days.

Yesterday was overcast and a little chilly.  


 We decided to head into Ulladulla to the tourist center and grab some info. 



While there we took a walk around the wharf.  We chatted with some locals who were fishing.


From there we decided to do the “Fossil walk”.  We are not sure whether it was the wrong tide, or we were just blind, and while we did not see any fossils we did have a lovely walk up the beach.

 
and saw this gorgeous fellow hunting lunch in the seaweed. 


 It was then off to Dolphin Point to see if there were any fishing spots that might be good to go and visit.  The water running of the rocks was like a mini waterfall.


One of the things we have noticed about the beaches in this region is that there large flat rock outcrops. 


 We decided that we would walk around the rocks on Dolphin Point – on the edge closest to the shore.  We were happily wandering around when a rogue wave came up and we could not get up the rock wall out of the way.  (X is where we were standing)  


Robbie was my hero and held on so that I would not get knocked off my feet, but gosh was I wet.  Even though he was my hero, it still did not stop him having a good laugh at my expense. 😊..    So it was back to the van to dry off and get the washing done.

We finished our lunch and then it was time for a nap.

Today dawned bright and sunny.  Such a wonderful morning.

I was up early and while chatting with my Mum and a friend I decided to feed the ducks.  They were very pleased to have an early morning snack.



I roused Robbie and we headed off to church.  The 15 in attendance today was in vast contrast to last week’s 3500.  The service was lovely, and we enjoyed the challenging message from the minister.

Back to the van for lunch and then it was off for a walk and to see if we could find some fishing spots.

Our first stop was to see the Warden Head Lighthouse.  

 
This lighthouse overlooks another flat rock outcrop.  It has another set of rocks just off from this which looks like it would be perfect for fishing.  It would only be safely accessible by boat, so no fishing there for Robbie.

 
From the lighthouse lookout we were fortunate to see some seals who were having a bit of a feed and playing with some birds.  Pretty cool.   


 No you cannot see them in the photo, so please stop straining your eyes :-)


There are a number of viewing platforms within walking distance of the lookout and we did a couple of them.

 
We then took a walk that went past one of the “sand” beaches in the area.  We have no idea how you get down to it, but it was lovely to see.



We found a walkway that goes down to another beach and Robbie was planning a trip there tomorrow, however he thinks he will be too tired as the cricket is on overnight 😊.


It was then back to the van again to get chores done and have a bit of a relax.

All for now lovelies

Take care and keep enjoying life.

Love us.

 Hi all, Here a brief overview of our 2 day adventure on Fraser Island with Fraser Island Explorer Tours. Here is a link to our trip in video format.  https://youtu.be/QY8tr093G4o We were picked up from our accommodation by our tour guide who then picked up some more of our group and headed to the barge to go across to the Island. It was very smooth no seasickness this time :) We got on the 4x4 wheel bus and headed inland to Lake Mackenzie. This was a very picturesque spot. The water was very cool and the sand as white as we've seen it. After this we headed to Central station , the old tree clearing head quarters. Next we headed for Lake Wobby which was a 45 min trek in and 45 out across lots of sand. It sits on a big sand-blow which will eventually disappear. A small fresh water lake with a couple of cat fish in it. Then off to our accommodation for the night. The next day we headed out to run the beach pretty much all day heading all the way up to Champagne Pools. We eventua...

Three days in the snow.

Hi lovelies, We have had the most amazing 3 days at the Perisher Valley Snowfields. Warning this is a very text heavy post.  Photos are limited, you cannot take many while you ski/board.  Robbie will have a video soon. On Monday we headed up just for a drive and to see what was around.   The day was perfect.   Not too windy and bright and sunny. We parked at Bullock Flats and caught the Skitube to Perisher.   This is really the best way to get there.   Nice highway all the way, and while the train is a little expensive at $55.00 per head return it is preferable to an extra hour drive on roads that may be a little less than ideal.   There is also only limited parking at Perisher so the train is the way to go.   We had a bit of a look around Perisher before heading off to Blue Cow, again by Skitube. It was so lovely to wander around.      We were thankful that we hired boots as it wa...
