Hello

Mt Gambier- Just on the border between South Australia and Victoria. A biggish town with quite a lot to see. There is a sink whole in the middle of a park which was quite interesting it used to be filled with water and the local rich family use to boat on it. There is the blue lake which each  year around Nov terms torquoise and no one seems to know why! There are lots of walks to do around the various lakes aswell. It was here we met a couple from the netherlands who are touring round in their own camper van which they had sent over!! A really friendly couple who we will also met again later on!!

Cape Bridgewater - This is near Portland which we didn't see as I thought it was just going to be another industrial town so we went very close but to the coast to see some seals from a very great height!! (binoculars would have been useful) We had a nice walk and went upto the highest point in Victoria which is not really that high!!

Port Fairy - I wanted to go there just for the name if nothing else but it was actually a really nice little place with its own little port as the name suggests which is lined on both sides with really pretty cottages. It is very picturesque and has a great beach.
