Working In Melbourne

Sunday 23rd April, The Grampians

Woken up at 6.10am to the sound of lots of Cockatoos creating the morning chorus! Left the lodge at 8am – Drove in to the Grampians to see the Mackenzie Falls. The walk to the falls had only recently been re-opened as the Grampians had suffered a massive Bush fire back in January, caused by lightening. A lot of the trees were blackened but there was new green re-grow. The falls were pretty and no tourist, probably due to the fact that we were there so early. Though the weather for the day started off promising unfortunately the fog came into the mountains which meant we could not see anything from the view points, which was obviously a little disappointing. Instead we went the Cultural Centre just outside Halls Gap. After this we went for lunch whilst our guide dropped off 4 of the girls for a bus to Adelaide. To make up for missing some of the tour we dropped into a winery (Bests, EST 1866). We arrived back to Melbourne at just gone 5.
