Queensclife to Rosebud

 We have taken the Queenscliff ferry acros to Sorento & Rosebud but disaster has once again struck our journey. Yvonne has been admitted to Rosebud hospital & has been in for 4 days, she is very unwell & we will return directly home as soon as she is released from hospital. This is a completely heart breaking event, but we will work through it as best we can

Victorian South Coast.

 From Lake Lascelles over the next few days to the South coast of Victoria & Cuurently at Warnambool.

We have been taking back roads and have really enjoyed doing so. We stayed at MacArthur at the showgrounds & explored the Byaduk caves the next day. These caves are lava tubes like Undara only much better as you can explore them yourself with your phone torch, quite an adventure for us & it cost nothing to do so. I am sure that will change & someone will cash-in, in the future.

Graham composed a lovely poem & sent it to us, we just wish he & Gail could have made it on this trip.
