Our family travels around Australia continue as we depart with one last sunrise at Uluru and make our way into South Australia and to Coober Pedy. Here we try our hands at fossicking, hoping to stike it lucky with some opal finding.
While exploring Coober Pedy we also finally have an incident that has been in the back of mind for the last 6 years that we have been traveling to remote and rugged places around Australia and as a result I get to use a bit of kit which has been bouncing around in the back of my last 3 utes for the same number of years.
In leaving Coober Pedy and heading towards Geelong, we have to say good bye to our mates and travel companions of the last few weeks as we part ways.
We drive through York Peninsula but as we were too short on time and the unfavourable weather meant that we didn’t get too do much more than enjoy the views out of the car window and stop in at some great little towns to try the local cuisines.
We did however manage to cruise along the Great Ocean Drive in Victoria and remember that the last time we were here was before the kids were even born. We saw some of the iconic landmarks as well a lot of wild Koalas which was my personal highlight of the trip.
