Grias you!
in the beautiful Byron we allow ourselves to go well for a while. We were under the Australian sun sizzle and tried to continue as a surfer.
With the police we will have we squandered a likely bissl ... The camping sites were
Byron Bay really outrageously expensive and it was super parking on the beach with shower and all the trimmings, we spent our nights there. This has the local officials but did not like and so we now have 2 big fines to the tune of about $ 300. But we are having so ...;)
After a few days ago we left our tents and traveled from further south.
A beautiful route along the coast, past the beautifully situated and only by sand dunes from the sea separate lakes and lush green meadows and hills brought us to the lofty lighthouse at Seal Rocks with a huge view over the sea and coast and even saw dolphins swarms and seals basking on the rocks.
After some nice hours on the deserted beach, we found there, the trip went on to Nelson Bay .
Unfortunately the car did not go as smoothly as we thought so. It suddenly started to pour with rain and we enjoyed a strong spring storm-Australian Art We saw the exit of the highway to Nelson Bay very late and Michael tried to maneuver our Purple still around the bend. That was clearly wrong and left our car in the plot either steering or brakes.
The result: we raced on the opposite car and rammed it with our snout into the page.
Luckily no personal injury, but therefore all the more body damage.
Well, these things happen but we still make the most of it and the rest of the time in the wonderful country to savor, even if the time likely to be shorter than planned, and New Zealand is probably a little bit longer ...
Our Purple has happened fortunately not so much, we could address the damage with no problem and now hope that no one will notice a car sale in Sydney.
course, the shock was sitting quite low and we were therefore the first dinner at Anna
Bay, one of Strandoertchen Nelson Bay , enjoy not quite like that. But the very next day we discovered the charms of this area and we felt very comfortable. July a surf school and a surf course occupied for an hour and see when you stand on the board. The long-awaited moment is here! She tried then the Michi learned to teach, but failed miserably ...;-)
Otherwise, we experienced incredible beautiful sunsets and cloud formations in all colors and camped next to a sand savanna which runs 38 kilometers inland.
Our trip was off to Sydney and the east coast of Australia was now completed.
Since we already have spent some time in Sydney, we drove around the big city and went on towards Melbourne. Many travelers were very impressed by Melbourne and therefore we were looking forward to it.
But first was something else on our map, the famous GREAT OCEAN ROAD !
The road is among the most beautiful routes of this world and meanders off the surf town of Torquay (where to give Quicksilver, Rip Curl, Billabong and Cult hand shops) about 50 km directly to the dramatic rocky coast along.
The sea thunders tirelessly with full force to the south coast and created over the years, the most abstract and wild rock formations. The best known and most popular formations are the "12 Apostles ", 12 pinnacles that rise up from the sea. Sorry, there are only 6 of them left, the rest are collapsed in recent decades in itself. Still worth mentioning "are the Arch ", a giant hourglass and the" london bridge , "the helm of an Felsbruecke open to the sea.
But it is not only Lookouts each spectacular, the entire route is beautiful beyond words, constantly we can see the sea and the coast in a new way and the hinterland has to offer. lush temperate rain forest ruled in the hinterland, as the inhabitants of Victoria (we are now in its third state) are very proud, and rightly so. We walked a couple of tracks and had to work our way through dense palm tree and saw a thousand years old trees tribes spent up to 20 meters By Mass !
Night we are in a very remote camping ground quite of rain forest. This night we will not soon forget! We parked our Purple shaded by (the shadows if they had, however, can save, it was so cold that we even our thickest sweaters from the back corner of the car had to dig) eucalyptus were in possession of intimate koalas. We discovered in the course of the evening more and more of these cute animals in the trees and they were not about to listen too! While the animals sleep all day, but then they watch it on sometimes, let her be "brumpfschrei" out chew on a leaf and continue to sleep again. And since almost every tree in an intimate Koala was sat, the night also accordingly loud ...;)
Since we the Great Ocean Road has so much enthusiasm, we even stayed a second night and enjoyed the magnificent views. Just look at the photos that are determined to convince you!
This was the westernmost point of our trip to Australia and it was achieved back in the vibrant multicultural city of Melbourne . We were surprised how different Melbourne unlike Sydney is. Things are not as strongly regulated, the streets are lively until late at night very much and the tram is free ...;) We
our specially guided tour of the city started by the parliament, some churches and the beautiful botanical garden.
We now have 1-2 days in Melbourne spend and then it goes back to Sydney. There we try to sell our Purple and once this is done, we go to New Zealand!
So dear ones, the next info will give it perhaps with a new car from a very reizvollenen country! We look forward
us much about your visits and hope that you continue to the home page gefaelllt well.
Enjoy the holiday season with Tannenbaeumen right ... we all look a little different ;-)
