Taters

These little fellas were recently dug up by Mr3P. They planted the seeds a few years ago and have had a few harvests since then. I just had to get a pic, before I turned them to mash!

The Great Ocean Road

Overlooking Bells Beach

We just did another road trip over the school holidays. this time we travelled the Great Ocean Road, from Bells Beach, Appollo Bay and Warnambool through  to Mt Gambier in SA , then back thru Penola, Dayelsford, Ballarat and back home.

I'm linking this post today to one of my favourite blogs : A Beach Cottage for "Good Life Australia Wednesday"

Erskine falls

Rainforest near Apollo Bay

1st lookout near the 12 Apostles

Warnambool, beach near Granny's Grave

Lochard Gorge. I love this photo taken by Mr3P. i think this will be enlarged and framed somewhere in the house.

Princess Margaret Rose Caves SA.

A sinkhole in Mt Gambier

Blue lake, Mt Gambier. this is inside a volcano.

Eklestine cave, has an underground Lake for divers.

This sinkhole was in the centre of town in Mt Gambier.

Ahh, back in Victoria.

Botanical gardens in Hamilton.

Overlooking the Grampions........spectacular AND .freezing cold!!

This fella has seen better days

MacKenzies falls. We saw a lot of caves and a lot of waterfalls.

The Trout Farm in Dayelsford. You should have seen the one that got away!!. We ate Maccas for lunch that day !

Panning for Gold in Soverign Hill. We found a couple of grain size pieces. Even my Macro lens failed to get a good shot, so you'll have to imagine.

We stayed at Kryal Castle on the last night. it's a real size replica of a medievil castle. the kids loved it. Sadly we had to leave before the jousting festival that they do every year, will definitely be back for next year.

We love our road trips. Not sure where to next?? Any suggestions??

If you build it, rain will come.............

The photos in this post are out of sequence, I know, but you can still see the progress "we" are making. The rain keeps a comin', but we will not be defeated.

Mr3P working on the floor and the sky about to open up......again.

Pickle #1 declares this "Collingwood Territory" (his fav AFL team)

Floor on and 1st level delivered, ready to be put up...........if it would only stop raining!!!

Having a break with Pickle #1

Pickle #3 was site manager.

The first day starting to put up the frame. It was very hot and sunny, by just like typical Melbourne weather, that was about to change. Mr 3P and friend Darren put the ground floor up in a day-n -a bit.
