So since last time I blogged. I had my monthly visit up to Cann Valley. Damien came with me this month.
As always I had terrible rental car trouble so we just got a car in Melbourne and drove up together. I worked my normal shift and then we went camping at Cape Conran national park. We were actually 13km away from the Cape at pearl point. We are still camping in our 1 season tent despite the rain and highs on 12C. On Saturday we took the walk along the beach to the Cape where we explored for a bit and made pancakes on the publicly available gas grills. Then we jogged back to try to get to our tent by dark. We didn't make it but hot chocolate and cards are just as good in the dark.
Sunday we packed up and drove to the Cape to go see the gorge that we missed on our walk. It was worth the detour. Then we stopped in Nowa Nowa because there was a market. We got dumplings of several varities and fudge. Raspberry, vanilla and mint chocolate. We took our chocolate to the tressle bridge outside of town. I have been meaning to stop on my past several trips and finally saw the turn off with the help of a navigator.
We stopped at little Alice my new favourite cafe for late lunch before driving back to see the last night of the comedy festival.
The week of work was fairly uneventful except for orienteering on Tuesday night where Damien came first and we went out for only slightly disappointing Mexican food. And Tuesday when we had friends over for games night where I made a chocolate cake and we played power grid.
Then last weekend we did the Brimbank 50k. Damien ran it and was the event Physio. It was pretty cool.
On our way out to dinner at Shri Lankan we stopped at organ pipes park to see volcanic rock formations( you'll recall that I did this with Kat too last year:))
This week has been quiet but long days at work. I have tomorrow off and we will hopefully go car shopping :)
