After loading in all our stuff we took Kat with us to go to the Blue Mountains! As she lives there she was our personal tourguide for one day :-) and she did a great job!! Thank you a lot Kat - it was just great!!
Unfortunately she couldn't join us for the whole trip (23days), so we had to continue on our own. We headed southern through Royal National Park in the south of Sydney, 7 Mile Beach (Faris favourite, even though the weather wasn´t perfect), Jervis Bay and then a bit inland to Canberra, Australia's capital! Well, now I can say I saw the capital, but I really think that 5hours are enough for this city (to be precise for the Parliament House and the Museum which are both really really cool - but that's it).
From Canberra following the coast more to the south and going all the way down to Melbourne, passing by Batemans Bay, Pambula Beach and the Prom (Promontory National Park) - the most beautiful NP I've ever seen!!!! - just to name a few.
After visiting Melbourne (which is a really nice city - if there weren´t be so many annoying flies) we headed to the very exciting Great Ocean Road and all the way up north again to Adelaide. All in all we drove almost 4.000km.
Just the perfect route if you ask me, and exactly what I wanted to see!!
The only thing I quite miss seeing is Kangaroo Island (which caught flames 1 day before we wanted to go there - only 12% were open for tourists anymore and only from the non-spectacular site of the island). Well, I see it as a new reason for visiting Australia again :-) VERY VERY SOON!!!!
Unfortunately I cannot post everything of our trip - that would take me ages and I am sure no one is interested in reading a whole book of a trip from Sydney to Adelaide.
But I can absolutely say: It is extremely worth vivisting this part of Australia and going all the way by caravan was just the best decision we could make!
I am so glad I had such lovely partners to travel with!! Thank you soo much for travelling with me Andi and Faris! I had the best time in my life with you both!
Always take care!!
Yours,
Stephanie
