The great lakes

8 June 2013
After spending Friday afternoon packing the car for the long weekend we were ready to head off.

We decided on the scenic route through Barrington tops and Gloucester to get to forster and beyond.

Barrington tops was foggy and damp. A great place for lunch and the kids to play. We played with bubbles and they seemed to last forever and have the most gorgeous colours.

The scenery was just breath taking along the way, with rolling hills and running creeks. If we had more time there were plenty of great camping spots.

South of forster is cape Hawke where you walk up a million steps to a viewing platform, more stairs. However the view was spectacular, you could see the inland lakes and the ocean.

The day was drawing to a close so we thought we had better find camp. Little did we know the only places to camp required fires to be in drums, something we didn't have. Ended up having to camp at a caravan park which was located in a swamp and had the most disgusting toilet block we've come across. There were way too many people as well. Luckily it was only for one night and we did have a fire in the bbq area.
