Today's journey was a little bit of a disaster because while choosing a route from Cooma to Melbourne I chose an unsealed road which the campervan isn't permitted to go down but I didn't think it would be too bad, I was very wrong! We struggled down the bumpy, rocky, gravely roads for quite a few miles before having to turn back and find an alternative route because we were too afraid of the damage that might be caused to the van which we would have to pay for when we returned it in a few days time. Whilst driving down the road I managed to get some great landscape photographs which made the journey worthwhile even though at the time we felt a bit rubbish as we felt that time and petrol had been wasted.
We decided on another route through Kosciuszko National Park. We got our ticket at the barrier as you have to pay if you want to stop anywhere in the park, to save money we decided not to stop and drive straight through taking pictures from the campervan as we went. We drove through some more beautiful scenery though it was completely different to the scenery that we had driven through this morning. The roads twisted and turned, up and down. Once through the park we started to drive on level ground and went past some lakes, we passed two wild kangaroos before turning in to a rest stop for the evening. It had been a long day of driving with stresses but the photos are some of my favourite of Australia.
