Day 30

Had a blowy night . The wind rock and rolled the van. 

Off to Mona. Not a museum person but lots of people said to do it. So we did. 

Great position and scenic. Great temperature for it. Started with a nice cappuccino will we downloaded the Mona app and studied it. 
it was good to refer to your phone for info on exhibits you were near. We wandered around trying to see everything.
The last photo is the stomach digesting. I didnt try to understand all the exhibits or paintings. Life is too short to waste on trying. All I can say is there are some disturbed minds out there somehow expressing their weird ideas and getting paid calling it art???

We were told to hunt out the Naughty Wall( nice way of saying a wall full of vaginas.) We did hunt around with no luck finding a vagina.

Mona is growing all the time and will be different in a few years. Will look again next time in area. 
Sal couldn't swim today so she worked out on the trampoline.

We had a fantastic lunch. I wandered off and order lunch. We just shared a burger. Both enjoying it until a guy walked past and asked what it was. I reluctantly told him it was a camel burger. Sal's face went pale. I was going to tell her after she finished. She did agree that it was nice though.

We went back determined to find the vagina wall. Sal made inquiries only to be told it closed last week. Not sure if they closed for cleaning or they are closed altogether. Anyway no naughty wall for us.😓

Took a drive to our next night's home. Along way stopped at Steppes monument in the middle of nowhere. Rocks with metal sculpture of local animals. 
Then onto the Great Lakes Hotel. Miena. Camp out back $10 or $20 with power. 
Settled then game of pool.
Nice wines over view.

Back to the bus for dinner.

Day 1.

Well after thinking we were getting away early to start the trip plans changed. After Sal did her laps at Woonona pool we had a great breakfast with all the family and Lous parents at the North Break Cafe at Woonona. Photos and a couple of tears from Sal and we got away about 10.30am.  Easy drive to Yass and Sal took over while I slept in the back.  Wandered around Gundagai in some reasonable heat decided on Criterion Pub for pizza later and chilling in van.  Lost my horn as we were farewelling Oreste so maintenance starts already. Otherwise all going well.  Click on the link and hopefully a video will appear thanks to Leanne and her brains trust. Gundagai Free Camp https://youtube.com/shorts/lkXXHWhd0cQ?feature=shared

Day 2

Image
Quiet night with all fans blowing hard keeping it at an acceptable temperature. Early start along highway. Saw a truck rollover but he considerately went off the road to do it so no hold up. No one was injured. The driver was talking to the Police probably trying to convince him he didn't fall asleep on a straight stretch of road. All workers on hand at Holbrook painting the submarine. The submariners return every Australia day and paint her up. They stay in town and have a few drinks together at the local pub. Off to Echuca to hopefully find a spot by the river. The co-pilot wanted to do more driving so here she goes. Next to no traffic. It is a nice feeling to be on the 🛣️ again. Stopped in Rutherglen. Nice street to wander along. Old buildings interesting shops. Onto Murray Valley Highway and found our way to Chisties Beach on the Murray just out of Echuca. Found this great spot and waded in for a dip.  No serenity. It is filled with ski boats and jet skis, house bo...

Packing the motorhome a week out.

Image
 Well it is just a week away before we head off on our Biggest Trip ever. We are in the motorhome in Tassie for most of February. We are meeting friends at Geelong and doing some cycle rail trails for a few days.  After that we are exploring places along the coast towards the Nullabour. Then explore the areas towards the Margaret River Region.  We are leaving the motorhome at Perth Airport and pick up a car to travel up to Exmouth. Swim with Whale Sharks up there and snorkeling.  Back to Perth and fly over to Bali and meet the family there for a week. We are heading to another area in Bali for another week. From Perth we wander back exploring places we missed on the way.  We anticipate the trip will end back home in July.
