Life is made up of all the good, bad and ugly things that happen along the way.
Here’s where we keep track of what went down, where and with what people.
Eden, Killer Whale Museum, Boyd Tower, Davidson Whaling Station
Eden offered up an intriguing and unique natural history that left us hungry for more.
Ben Boyd National Park, Eden
We set off on a pilgrimage to re-live Lib’s 23rd birthday morning; red rocks here we come!

On the beach kangaroo trail, hidden guerrilla bays and finding shelter for the night – the South Coast continues to be an adventure!

White sands, nature and a struggle to find a campsite – thanks for everything Jervis Bay!
Minnamurra Rainforest Centre, Belmore Falls, Fitzroy Falls, Kangaroo Valley, Gerrigong, Gerroa
Rainforests, nature, plenty of wombats, a free campsite and a hangry Jess. Good times.

The out-of-this-world rock formations had us snap happy and reflective, before hitting up the blow holes of Kiama.
Shellharbour, Bass Point Reserve, Killalea State Park
On our second day on the road, we explore Shellharbour and it’s surrounds; swimming, eating and adventuring with a quick car fix.
