So got our camper today, not the best looking one, as you can see it is aboriginal painted. which we are kind of fed up with by now, but never mind, still looks funky.
So we had decide to head out and we ended up in murrey bridge. there wasn't actually anything in murrey bridge so we head south to victoria harbor. Located an island just off the mainland called granite island. It actually has penguins living on the island. which i kind of thought was strange i never thought penguins can live in hot places, i thought they love the cold. anyhow.
To get to the island you can either get a horse drawn train, yeah it sounds strange to me aswell. why have a horse pull a train along. or walk over the bridge. just missed the horse thing it just pulled away as we got there, so had to walk. never mind have time to waste.
got to the other side, and went hunting for penguins. we did actually manage to locate one, which was hiding, i assume thats because of all the tourists. bet i would hide aswell, see my ugly face coming towards me.
So had a walk around the island. there was a few nice views, nothing special. got back into town, walked up and down the highstreet, most places are shut. this is the low season. Drove around the town for a bit, located a carpark next to a nice bit of green. thought this was a good spot, don't have to pay.
basicaly just hung around, played some cards, read my book. then went to sleep.
however at around 3am some kids decided to knock on the van pissed out of the head and start saying, wickedy wickedy wickedy wickedy, i want to rent you (this is down the back of the van), wickedy wickedy wickedy. this went on for about 15 mins. both me and paul obviously was woken up by this, but wasn't sure if we should say or do anything, not sure how many of them were out there, or if we had said something it would of made them be more annoying. so we left it.
they finally left as i said after about 10min. then around 5am, same thing. nice. maybe its not great to stay in carparks in towns.
