On Our Own Again

We got dropped at the hire car centre but were a little early so headed across the road to Woolworths supermarket. We stocked up for the coming week. We will be travelling south on the coast towards Melbourne before looping back on the mountain roads back towards Wollongong.

Today was the start of our journey. We stopped off at lots of quaint little towns with beautiful beaches. We passed through Nowra, Huskisson, Hollywood and Ulladulla. The highlight was our stop at Jervis Bay. Hyams beach was so pretty and it is said to have the whitest sand in the whole world. It even squeaks as you walk through it! We had a paddle ... a little bit chilly.

Next stop was to find a camping ground. We headed up into a beautiful forest but couldn't find the campsite that was shown on the map. Eventually we gave up, turned around and headed back to camp at a national park by the beach.

We pitched the tent amongst the trees. On went the camp stove and dinner was served!
