Hello Guys! Today we had a very relaxing (read: Boring) day of mostly driving. Firstly we headed to, you’ll like this Nate, a football oval in Queenstown. Yes, I know what you’re all thinking: “Why a football oval?” Well, this football oval was special. It was made of a type of gravelly stuff to stop water from forming in the middle of the oval. Apparently the footballers have to learn to roll as they fall over so they don’t get hurt. Next we travelled to a waterfall named after our beloved pooch. Well, maybe. The details on who it was named after are a bit iffy. Nelson Falls were very pretty and the walk through a rainforest to get to was also great. Along the way little signs depicting a time machine and various paragraphs on what the forest looked like at different points in history. Before anyone asks, the time machine did look a lot like a TARDIS. After that we drove to a part of Cradle Mountain-St Clair Lake National Park: St Clair Lake. Once there, we went on a walk near the lake. The walk was through gum trees; a lot different to our last walk; there was also a platypus spotting platform where, to Mum’s disgust, she still didn’t see a platypus. Lastly, after a lot of slow driving through the hills, we bought some raspberries and mulberry-like berries which were delicious. We are currently situated at Mount Fields National Park, camped with many other campervans and tents.
Goodnight, Maddy.
