Week 9: From the booze to the views

The trip this week: Melbourne - Whouraly - Wangaratta - Harrietville - Mt Hotham - Anglers Rest - Mitta Mitta - Wadonga - Cobram - Poolajelo - Naracoorte

This week brought us back to civilisation thanks to Jon Jon and Em's wedding in the gorgeous area of Whouraly between Wang and Victoria's Alpine National Park.  Feeling slightly worse for wear following a cracking night on a beautifully converted tobacco farm, we headed back into the Alpine region for some beautiful views:

We can thoroughly recommend driving and camping along the Omeo highway between Omeo and Mitta Mitta.  There are so many awesome campsites along the upper Mitta Mitta River and for those less adventurous (but equally romantic), you might choose to stay at the Blue Duck Inn at Anglers Rest which is about half way along the road.

The second half of our week was filled with wonderful family and frequent showers!  Easter brought the crowds to the river land so we made a quick stop on the Murray before heading down to My sister's place in Western Victoria for some polocrosse.

Next week we will have some more polocrosse excitement and then off to Adelaide!  See you then.
