Beach time in Australia

 Our 3 day drive from Sydney to Melbourne began this morning. Soon after leaving the Sydney suburbs headed south on the Princes Road we drove across mountains which afforded grand vistas of the eucalyptus forests. We'll be driving about 350 km/ day. When we arrived at our destination, Narooma, we were treated to a nice surprise: a flock of Rainbow Lorikeets!

Our hotel manager gave us a good tip on a restaurant; a country club clubhouse that overlooks the Pacific coast. After a well prepared grilled dory and grilled barramundi dinner, we walked about half of a kilometer to a beautiful sandy beach replete with an offshore island, cliffs, and rocks jutting out into the sea. See for yourself how nice it is.
