Le lendemain nous sommes repartis vers les Grampians, un parc national tres connu du Victoria. Malheureusement, il pleuvait beaucoup alors nous n'avons pas pu profiter au max de notre apres-midi... nous avons dormis dans un YHA 100% ecologique, c'etait tres interessant ! Le lendemain, nous avons plus profite de la belle nature qui nous entourait...

Entry 11 of a trip titled: One Big Doss

Having studied for so long this is my time to doss! This blog will be used to let everyone know what myself and my girlfriend, Tina, are up to during our year and a bit away in Australia and South America.

With some flukey timing on my part I managed to get on a VLine bus on Friday to Halls Gap, the main town in the Grampians. The bus only started a month ago and only runs three times a week so it wor...

Well, what a red necked feral town this turned out to be. A little harsh perhaps but the locals were weird. Nice beaches around town and good shopping centres out of the CBD but very dissapointing.
