After Tasmania I spent a week staying with James and a very pregnant Louise in Melbourne. The weather was a bit unreliable, with storms delaying my drive to Adelaide. While in Melbourne I caught up with friends, looked around galleries, saw some cottages in the park, just escaped getting caught in the crossfire of some cottaging in the park toilet. I also drove to Phillip Island where I saw some impressively rough seas at the Nobbies and watched cute little penguins coming to roost at dusk. With James, Rhys and Caitlin I rode on the Puffing Billing steam train through the Dandenong Range from Belgrave to Emerald.

Back to Port Arthur, Tasmania. On to the road to Adelaide.
