MELBOURNE
We arrived at Melbourne
on the ‘Spirit of Tasmania’. The journey was overnight and we had a cabin.

we drove to Marty and Suzie’s home.
It was a fun day drinking good wine and eating nibbles.

friend.

to Anglesea and settled into Nick’s house.
Marty and I had a surf
on a beach break west of Anglesea and the girls went to another beach for a
swim. The surf was okay with a very strong wind.
We had a relaxing
afternoon and ate pizza for dinner.

ANGLESEA TO ALBURY
My birthday! 66th year!
We said our goodbyes
and left Anglesea for Albury.
It was a long drive in
off and on rain and some traffic.
19 APRIL
ALBURY
It rained all day.
20 APRIL
ALBURY TO WAGGA WAGGA
We woke to sunshine.
I had a mountain bike ride at Nail Can Hill. It wasn’t that good as the tracks were heavily eroded and there was a need more directional sign.
Later, we sat at park
on Murray River. It was very pleasant in the sunshine, watching the river
meander along.
We parked in town to
see the Mama Art Gallery. There wasn’t much on display.
We drove to Wagga Wagga
and settled into a camp beside the Murrumbidgee River.

WAGGA WAGGA
An easy day.

WAGGA WAGGA TO SUTTON
In the morning, we
left the camp area and we had a fun cycle around Lake Albert.
After that, I had a mountain
bike ride at Pomingalarna Mountain Bike Park and Jacinta had a walk. The tracks
were very good and the ride was heaps of fun.
We left Albury and drove
to Sutton. We stayed at Mark’s new home.

We had a tour of parts
of Canberra.
Later, we had a big
dinner and a fire afterwards at Chris and Matilda’s place.
24 APRIL
SUTTON TO KIAMA
We said our bye byes
and left Sutton.
It was a wet drive and
a steep and windy road to the Jamberoo Pub where we met long time friend Beacon
and Meryl. It was a great venue and a great afternoon chatting and enjoying
each other’s company.
We drove to Kiama to
stay with other long-time friends, Grotty and Helen. It was a fun afternoon of
chatting, drinking and lots of board games.
25 APRIL
SUTTON TO HOME
After a leisurely
breakfast, we farewelled Grotty and Helen and drove back home.
The end of another
road adventure. Time goes by so fast and it seems the trip was a blink of the
eye.
