It seems a long time since the last update in Tassie about those pesky drivers. We are now firmly camped just outside of a town called Ararat (which is just east of the Grampians). The place is called Green Hill Lake campground with hot showers and only a donation for each night.
The boat ride from Devonport was a rocky one and we were glad to be out of Devonport. Away from the rain and windy 'normal' weather of Taz. Back at Vinny's, we checked out Melbourne in more detail. Melbourne is truly a very livable city with culture, good food and very friendly people.
Our plans for this week is to check out the Pyrenees, Grampians and the Ballarat/Bendigo region before returning to Melbourne for a 14km fun run on April Fool's Day.
I leave you with a question. What is one thing that really ruins your camping experience? Is it when you accidentally drop your undies on the wet floor or when you forget your toothbrush at home or when you are sleeping on a slope?
Km Travelled: 5706km!!
Places Visited: East Tamar Valley, Melbourne, Ballarat, Beaufort, Ararat.
Highlights: Melbourne in all its glory!; Tamar Valley foods; Victorian hospitality and friendliness
Lowlights: not many but Devonport belongs here.
Roadkill count: still nil.. maybe a few little sparrows but do they count?
