Eden to Metung

Monday 23rd 

We drive further south towards Melbourne.  It's taken us a few days to realise that this section of the Australian coastline is not as spectacular as the others we have travelled.  The individual destinations are excellent, but there is less to see in between.  Playing 'I Spy' when all you can see is trees for several hours, wears thin after a bit!  We have resolved to stick to the highway and 'get there' to enjoy our destinations

A bit of a mix-up with the booking and we were in one of these nice rooms, but without the lake view we had expected

A quick word with Jim the proprietor and he delighted us by switching us to one of these top floor apartments with a stunning view.

The sky is a bit grey but we are promised an improvement .  This boardwalk runs across the front of the village
