After some research, I found Koreelah National Park and it's creekside campground. A beautiful, peaceful location that we had never been to.
Friday night saw us in bed early to get warm. The fire could only keep us warm for so long. Around midnight I realised in my haste to get to bed we had left our rubbish bag out and not closed the trailer door. We had a very persistent visitor (Possum) who had climbed into the trailer and dragged our loaf of bread out. So out of a warm bed I climb, put away the bread and rubbish (in the trailer) and close the trailer door. Good, now back to sleep. Well, not so just yet. Our little possum friend could obviously still smell the food in the trailer. He was up on top of our trailer, running back and forth looking for a way in!!! It took me getting up 3 times and several bangings against our roof before he decided 'no food to be had here' and took off in search of some other unsuspecting campers.
Saturday morning once again saw the fire blazing and was spent relaxing and reading until I could no longer contain my curiosity and convinced Alex and Tash it was time for a walk.
Of course, that wasn't enough for us (even with our ailments), we scrambled down into the gorge and made our way further downstream.
Back at camp, we made a damper to go with our soup for a late lunch.
A bit more of that R & R during the arvo before setting the fire roaring again for dinner. Another early night to escape the cold. Tash slept in 6 layers and Alex 5 layers of clothes overnight and they were still cold.
Sunday morning called for a hot breakfast and more reading, sitting in the sun. Just what the doctor ordered. Oh, and Alex and Tash brushed up on their slingshot skills.
They had this little fellow thinking all those small rocks must have been food coming his way.
We left for home just after lunch, all feeling a lot better for the time spent relaxing. I'm sure we'll be back here in summer for a swim in that infinity pool!
