This area is truly beautiful, we hit heaps of rain over here though again!  Without my 5d Mark II & with the amount of rain, non stop for about a week, my pictures are quite limited.  I did however manage to see some wonderful sunsets & the surf was pumping for Fabe!  xxx

Lake Tabourie
Fish from the island, lake or beach! We enjoyed these little gem of a place.  Unfortunately this is where my camera broke & I did not have it for almost 2 months of my travels!  Sad times but lucky I had my Canon G11 so at least I could still get some snapshots of the areas, even though I did feel like crying just for a moment!  Things can be repaired & it wasn't like I didn't have any camera!  The rain was still pouring, it actually rained here at the end of our trip for 4 consecutive days non stop!  WOW!  I almost didn't believe it could rain that much & we were camping by a lake!  Flood warnings all over NSW however we mananged to avoid any serious flooding, thank fully! xxx

Mystery Beach / Artsville / Congo /

MYSTERY BEACH
Beautiful area, filled with lovely beaches, lush forests & bit of surf if you are there at the right time!  We hit more rain here so actually decided not to camp at the camp site, however I would definitely check it out again sometime.  The campsites were a mixture, you could camp amongst the trees or nearer the beach.

BODELLA & MILTON
photographed with my iphone 4s.... very funky retro furniture in the cheese shop & surf restaurant are in the small little town of bodella, this is certainly a fun place to look around for the day, another great place up the road a little is the town of Milton, this town has amazing food, & the best second hand store I've ever seen, I could've bought most of the store...lucky my house is on the other side of the country! xxx

CONGO
photographed with Canon G11....  rained out to say the least!  within 20 minutes we were knee deep in water, so so glad we were not in a tent, Fabe stores his surfboards under our van, they were floating away!  Loud thunder, crazy lightning, very impressive storm.  Could not get out for photographs as the rain was so heavy!  Although it rained, this location is extremely beautiful. xxx

Pyramid Rock, NSW

This is one spectacular bit of coastline, drive through tall, green forests to meet, ancient rock formations.  The long sandy beach with its own beach kangaroos and wallabies was perfect for catching a fish or two right off the shore and for a surf.  The camp ground is awesome, secluded, grassy spots with a picture perfect view!  Nice!  We were going to stay one night, but decided to stay a few more instead! NSW weather was once again meeting us with storms and rain however we did see some sun in amongst it, but it did prove for some amazing skies. xxx
