GOOLWA SA - MOUNT GAMBIER SA - PORTLAND VIC
I can still body surf, woo hoo!
What a crazy week it has been, weather wise!
Firstly we were in Goolwa trying to survive 43c. We stayed at Bev and Dig's for a few nights while Trev put Airbags on the rear axils of the Winnebago. It was suggested that Airbags would give a smoother ride due to the weight of everything we are carrying onboard, and it did.
We decided to go to Goolwa's surf beach for a swim one day to cool off. I had forgotten how turbulent the waves and under water rips are at Goolwa.
What a blast, very refreshing but somewhat exhausting!
We made our way to Mount Gambier, 36c ;
where we stayed at the Mount Gambier Harness Racing Club, as you do!
Our timing was perfect, Friday night was a race meet and we had front row seats. The weather was still stinking hot!
Our next stop was, and is, Narrawong National Park, just inland from Portland, 21c.
This is a stunning free camp, picnic ground. We were going to stop for a couple of days but we'll stay now until after the long weekend.
Wallabies, Koalas, beautiful parrots, and this little guy!
and these guys...
and then, there were these guys!!!
