Saturday we set off from Pambula beach and headed for the Eden Whaling Museum. This is perched high above Twofold Bay and is very interesting - describes 'Old Tom' and his killer whale pod as they herded the bigger whales in to the bay for the slaughter. To-day happened to be the 80th anniversary of the opening of the museum so a function was planned for later that day.
we continued on to Mallacoota where we enjoyed lunch on the foreshore of Mallacoota Inlet.
Just out of Mallacoota we left the Highway for 8km along a dirt road to the property of Tony and Julie (friends of Jennie and Wayne) at Wallagaraugh. The view was magnificent, complete with emus, kangaroos and wetlands. Afternoon tea was followed by an enjoyable walk through the property - to the river, the fruit/vegetable garden and the house. We had no power or phone coverage so we could not up-date the blog - sorry about that!! We were then entertained for dinner - a most enjoyable day!
Sunday we reluctantly set off from Wallagaraugh to our morning tea stop just out of Orbost - we rang Big 4 at Bairnsdale and booked our overnight stay
We set up our vans at Bairnsdale, washed the cars and vans and set off for Paynesville on the Gippsland Lakes
where we find a huge Marina - coffee at the Fishermans Wharf overlooking the boats and waterway was very enjoyable.
