We have returned to Manly Beach from our road trip down the coast to Melbourn! The trip was a lot of driving but was totally awesome. On the way down we drove every scenic tourorist rout we could which was pretty but took super long. We camped at a randome campground the first night which was good because it had a covered kitchen area and it was pouring rain. The next day it cleared up somewhat and we went to the town of Eden which was pretty cool. From there we drove out some dirt road for into a National Park and camped next to some river out in the middle of nowhere, which was super nice and pretty. The next day we charged all the way to Melbourn and went to a Hostel in the Saint Kilda district, which was a nice place that kind of reminded me of San Fransisco in a way. We ate at this cool Indian food co-op which had really good food and where you pay what you think the meal was worth , or simply what you can aford to pay. Back at the Hostel it was a a raging party, and we came to the conclusion that we were the only ones there that were not from Australia and many people seemed to be living there. This was kind of weird but fun.
The next day we left Melbourn and started back north. We ended up driving out another dirt road for around 40 km to a remote section of coastline which had a packed camp ground but still hardly any people. This was also the first part ofthe trip that I seriously regretednot having a surfboard. We saw some guy catch a huge ray surf fishing and that was cool. Finally the next day we climbed Pigeon House Mountain which was a pretty gnarly hike straight up this peak (Australians haven't discovered cutbacks yet) but had a sweet 360 view from the top.
Now we are back and no longer living off bread, nutella, and cheese and we area soon going to leave to head North this time.
Oh yeah and Lucas and Brice played in a vollyball tournament yesterday and Brice hit an European International player in the face, which was awesome, but they still lost.
