Coffins Bay to Cummins is actually a 40 min drive according to Google maps but we actually spent 2 1/2 hours getting out of the park (leaving camp at 1045) and then another 4 hours to check out some local spots on the way to Cummins (arriving around 5:30pm). Our packing up was quick (asContinue reading “Coffins to Cummins 16/2/23.”

Kyneton to Yarrawonga 6/10/22
We were glad that it wasn’t as rainy as the previous day, but it was still a bit limiting for us as far as taking a look on our way. At Heathcote we found our way around one blocked waterway (river over road) only to find that the track we hoped to take to theContinue reading “Kyneton to Yarrawonga 6/10/22”
Bordertown to Campbell Creek
We started the day with a 6 km walk around the Bordertown lake with Sue. We checked out the local RV parks (the one near the lake looks great) and a couple of sculptures and got in another hour of chatting as we walked. I have limited the pictures here , as the internet isContinue reading “Bordertown to Campbell Creek”
Orchids on the way to Bordertown 22/9/22
As is the way, we weren’t really super organised with the holiday planning, so it was just after 11am before we were on our way. We have a place to stay once we get to our destination, but decided to take the Prado and swags. That way we can stop and camp on the wayContinue reading “Orchids on the way to Bordertown 22/9/22”
Portland to Home 6/8/22
Our last day of holiday took us the remaining 550km or so to home. The day was cold as we walked over to the pub for our continental breakfast included in the cost of the room. As we left the motel we spotted some chicks and mother in the car park – Masked Lapwings! RenownedContinue reading “Portland to Home 6/8/22”
Grace Diment’s 94th Birthday
19th May 2022 Trevor and I decided to take Mum on a drive for her birthday, so we waited until the cleaner had finished and then arrived to pick her up from her unit at Morphettvale for a mystery adventure. We started off by driving up the hill and into Clarendon. Here we stopped atContinue reading “Grace Diment’s 94th Birthday”
3/9/21 The penultimate day. Streaky Bay to Caralue Bluff Conservation Park
We started off the day by setting off the smoke alarm in our cabin. In our defence I must say that the kitchen set up made it impossible to put the fry pan under the exhaust fan and the frypan was always destined to be smoky. We heard at least 3 other cabins do theContinue reading “3/9/21 The penultimate day. Streaky Bay to Caralue Bluff Conservation Park”
26/8/21 – Farm, friends and relatives
We enjoyed a wonderful hot shower and cooked breakfast(Thankyou Meri!!) before heading out with Codge to have a look at his place. Codge and Meri were babysitting puppies for one of their sons while he was away so, after a look at the town to get the feel of the place (and to confirm forContinue reading “26/8/21 – Farm, friends and relatives”
25/8/21 Rellies and Friends with a sprinkle of art.
After leaving Perth, we headed out to the South along the very efficient freeway with the train line in the centre. We stopped for lunch at the Miami Bakehouse at Myalup where , along with a very delicious pie each (with fancy name on them to avoid confusion) we found lots of painted kangaroos inContinue reading “25/8/21 Rellies and Friends with a sprinkle of art.”
21/8/21 – 25/8/21 Perth friends and family
I’m rolling these few days into one blog post as there wasn’t much touring done – it was mostly just being with special people that we care about and don’t see often enough. We enjoyed our hot showers at Dandaragan in their amazing ablutions block and heated croissants on the public bbq in pioneer parkContinue reading “21/8/21 – 25/8/21 Perth friends and family”
