Day 4 - South Gippsland

Gradually ticking the native animals off the list...an echidna right beside the road.

Hans stalking some flowers.

View across Corner Inlet to The Prom.

A local fishing for flatheads (fish) at Port Albert. At least the sun was out!

Han's first fish and chips at Port Albert.

A building for sale...a renovator's delight apparently!

Driving up to Tarra-Bulga National Park near Yarram.

The walk in the Tarra Valley. Hans was expecting a dinosaur to step out of the bush at any time!

Not far from here we saw a Lyre Bird running through the bush which is fairly rare for these reclusive birds.

A small waterfall at the top of the Tarra Valley walk.

Hans in the base of a 1000 year old Myrtle tree.

The entrance to the Tarra Valley walk. Ferns a plenty!

The suspension bridge in Bulga Park.

After this we had an early dinner at the Rosedale bakery and Chainsaw Gallery - true!!

We then went to Bairnsdale for the Secondary School's presentation night. My family give a science scholarship in the name of our brother who died of cancer 10 years ago. A night of many speeches, awards presented and 4 performances by the school bands. We stated that night with my brother in Paynesville.
