Lots of animals.

Hi lovelies,

For the past couple of days we have been blessed to see such an array of wildlife.


Yesterday we had to take a trip back down to Ulladulla to retrieve Robbie's wallet which had been found by a very honest shopper and returned to Woolworths.  He actually lost it last Thursday but we did not notice until the weekend.  A number of phone calls to places we had been to try and find it, and were praising God when Woolies said they had it.

On the way home we did some detours into different bays around St George's Basin.  A number of lovely spots.

Driving down the main road we were amaze to see this massive mob of kangaroos.  They were not at all scared of us, so we stopped to grab a photo or two.
 


We also spotted these two characters who were decorating a front yard.  One just for decoration I hope,





 and one as the mailbox.




Today we ventured off to Booderee National Park, because I used my much loved "let's go for a walk" phrase. 😆.

The first stop was to see another gorgeous white sand beach.


Green Patch beach was stunning, with its crystal clear water.



The Munyunga Waraga Walk is a circuit track that goes from Murrays Beach up to Governors Head


then along the cliff edge past Devils Elbow


and then back through the bushland.



We were blessed with the views, and the wildlife.


This gentleman was sitting quite bravely just beside us at Govenors Head.  Such a regal looking bird.



We again saw some whales making their way north.

After the walk we ventured off to the Cape St George Lighthouse ruins.  Found a lovely spot to have some lunch and then ventured around the ruins.



This lighthouse was supposedly built in a hurry.  It was in the wrong place and so when the new one was built at Perpendicular Point it was vacated.


It obviously was not happy about not being used as it continued to cause problems for ships with reflecting moonlight and still steering ships astray.


For its continued harassment of shipping the government actually blew the lighthouse up.



We again saw some whales.  They are so lovely to see.  No pics today.  Too busy watching.

It was then off to Caves Beach for a look.  This was pretty special.


 Kangaroos in both the car park


and the camp area.



 A lovely lookout.


and a beautiful beach.





The caves were pretty cool.


What did amaze us was the flow of water that was coming down one of the cliff edges.


You did not immediately see the drips, but heard the noise.  It was kind of musical and was so lovely.


Back to the van via the local grocery store.

Another amazing day.

Tomorrow is a day off for us.  Some chores, some journalling, some fishing and I am pretty sure a nap.

Stay safe lovelies 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...
