Day 125 -Mimosa Rocks National Park, Australia Since I woke up extra early, I took the time to detour to Cap Coran see the rocks and the pretty ocean. It was nice and the sun was shining, and to get there, I followed a smaller road that was hugging the beach. I enjoyed it. Cap…

Day 124 -Wilsons Promontory National Park, Australia Edit: I’m going back on my writings and fleshing it out. So you will be familiar with most of it! My title should be “Hiking the Prom” (the nickname of the park), but I think that’s enough titles on that particular trope. I have a shower available for…

Day 122 – Great Otway National Park, Australia Four months! A bit more than a third, less than half of my trip already accomplished! After spending the night in the rainforest, I went to my dual goals of the day: the Triplet Falls walk, which is only a few minutes’ drive from my second objective,…

Day 119 – The Grampians, Australia You are all thinking that I’m in the wrong country, I bet. Well, one of the loop is called Grand Canyon, so there it is. And I’m cheating on the picture heading the article as I took it the day before at MacKenzie Falls. So today was the second…

Day 118 – The Grampians, Australia Well, hiking may be a slight exaggeration. The map I bought suggested several activities, from a day’s worth of landmarks to see to more in-depth, longer walks. I decided to start with the recommanded tour today as a warm-up for longer walks the day after. So I flitted from…

Day 117 – Mount Gambier to the Grampians, Australia I escaped my jail at the correct time of 9am and went to see the Blue Lake, a landmark of Mount Gambier. Apparently, in the space of a few days in November, the lake turns a vivid shade of blue. It was still blue enough for…

Day 116 – Mount Gambier, Australia Dear family and friend, only one day on the road and already I’m spending my night in jail. Well, it’s a gaol. I have a very nicely heated cell, just to myself, though there are four bunks. But it’s reconverted, so no need to post bail for me. So…

Day 115 – Adelaide, Australia For my last day in Adelaide, I went to the last museum I wanted to see, the South Australian Museum (please note the profound originality of the title). Of course, going straight there wouldn’t be fun. Yesterday I rode the bus in a big great loop, today I walked straight…

Day 114 – Adelaide, Australia To make up for my previous lazy day, I went on a combo Art Gallery + Botanic Garden. Exactly what I did in Darwin, though I did it in a different order there. I went on the free bus that makes a loop around Adelaide. Of course, this being the…

Day 111 – Coober Pedy, Australia The joys of sleeping in underground caves with a flimsy curtain separating you from the corridor include running children at all hours, shouting, laughter, and goosing of said curtain because it is very fun to disturb people trying to sleep behind it. Of course, the same children are the…
