On the prom

After leaving Melbourne we headed down to Wilsons Promontory National Park, the most southerly park of Australia. The park has some great beaches and walking trails. On our first day we walked to squeaky beach (which squeaks as you walk on it) and on our second day we scaled to 553m high mt Oberon for some fantastic veiws of the park.







The park is full of wildlife as we got to have a few close up encounters with wombats (which look a bit like a cross between a pig and a koala) and some birds.




We also enjoyed on of the best sunsets we've seen so far, which was also our last sunset over the ocean that we'll get to see in oz, as from now on we'll be travelling back up the east coast to Sydney.


We've now got about four weeks to get to Sydney to meet up with Lex's mum and dad, and as we've got a bit of time on our hands we are going to have a go at a bit more wwoofing for a week or so with a woman who runs a B&B in the small town of Stratford.

We'll keep you posted...
