Dare to be you
After that park, we leave the coastal area and head to the Snowy Mountains… The next days we’ll drive through these Australian Alps on our way to Lake Mungo NP.
From Queanbeyan we take the scenic drive through these mountain lands, camping along in the NP. The nights are extremely cold over there, so we are glad to have our sleeping bags and a fire pit on the grounds. The wood fire warms us up during dinner before we climb in our tents.
We leave Shellharbour along the tourist drive into the surrounding hills, picnic near a waterfall and that night we sleep between the birds on a camping in Morton NP.
Being back on the road feels well, however we have to make a couple of changes on our trip. The days are extremely short by now, since we are in the ‘dark weeks’ here down under. Sunset is around 4:45 pm and sunrise around 7:30 am… The first of june winter starts here, so the nights are very cold, ranging between minus 2 and 5 degrees. So our warm sleeping bags are a welcome alternative!
We leave Sydney after the reparations of the car… But on our way to Shellharbour the car keeps giving troubles, nonetheless we enjoy the beach views. Especially on the Cliff Bridge near Wollongong. Finally we arrive at Stan and Suzanne’s home. We met them earlier on our trip on the Gibb River Road. By being now near Sydney it is more than time we visit them and upon arrival we get a very warm and friendly welcome!
After a couple of months alone on the road… Ilse crossing Patagonia, South America and I further driving in Australia, both of us felt we really miss each other. Things feel much better when we are together, so we decided to join once again.
Meeting place : Sydney Airport – Time and date : 9 may 2013 at 18:00
Both of us had some arrangements and little troubles to get there in time, but finally at 19:00 we’re reunited and soon we’re on our way to a small hotel at Potts Point, Sydney. Time to enjoy the city…

Vandaag rijden we vanuit Cooma naar Jindabyne waar we in het Snowy Region Visitor Centre de nodige informatie vinden voor de komende dagen. Al vlug beseffen we dat we weeral veel te weinig tijd hebben.
Rond 10u30 vertrekken we naar de Charlotte’s Pass in het Kosciuszko National Park. Na een prachtige rit langs het Lake Jindabyne komen we aan de ingang van het park waar we een entry fee betalen van 16dollar om er precies 24u te verblijven.
