After leaving Daylesford we travelled along the Great Ocean Rd. The only problem was that it is not possible to pull over and enjoy the view in the direction we were travelling! Also, the roads are extremely windy....however, I tried to take in some of the view whilst poor Chris had to keep his eyes on the road until our destination in Queenscliff. We decided to avoid Melbourne city and caught a ferry across the bay to Sorrento from Queenscliff. The ferry was so easy. It took 45mins, we drove off, got onto the coastal road, explored the small places along the way and ended up in Sale to spend the night at Nat's father-in-law - Chris Bollen's farm.
After our night in Sale and being replenished with fresh carrots, tomatoes and the BEST apples we have ever tasted from Chris's farm we made our way to Canberra. Along the way we visited the amazing fresco paintings on the walls and roof of St Marys in Bairnsdale. It took us 2 days to get to Canberra as we stopped for a night in a luscious, green field on the Cann River for one night. We passed through Bombala - platypus country - and then Cooma before arriving in Canberra.
We saw a little girl climbing in the old farm machinery in the park at Bombala. I could imagine Nat's kids having a ball.
Victoria is a beautiful state. I could stay for a long time just enjoying all the views.
It is so green and lush.
