Road Trip , Day Two, Rainforests (Bombo Beach to Moruya)

Made some breakfasts in the back of the van and saw some Splendid Fairy Wrens (which are the cutest birds ever).

Drove to Minnamurra rainforest and bought an Australian bird book. Went walking through the forest and saw Lyra birds, Waterfalls, Strangling fig trees and lots of other foresty things.

Headed on to a place called Batemans Bay and did some food shopping.

Kept on driving to find a place called Moruya to sleep but couldn't find it anywhere and it was getting dark.
Saw a frog jumping across the road and had to ask some fishermen where the campsite was. They led the way in their car - very helpful!

Got a camp fire going (took ages!) and sat around it drinking wine. Claire made me kangeroo sausages and beans for dinner. It was very nice.

The campsite was in a forest near a little airfield so we had planes coming and going and they sounded really near.

Put fire out and hit the sack.

The Rainforest, it rained!

It took a while but we got it going eventually!
