Aussie Road Trip!

Left Manly on Monday 29th to pick up our Campervan in Kings Cross, Sydney. Had a cool drive to Borderee National Park in Jervis Bay which is a massive 'spit' or headland you might call it about 200km south of Sydney. Driving in the country is fine, the roads are pretty good and the AirCon is a god send. Thankfully the other drivers are pretty sensible so no scares as yet!
Once we got to Green Patch (a camping area of Borderee) we took a stroll along the beach as the sun went down, very cool indeed. Jervis Bay is rumoured to have the whitest beaches in the world and I can't dispute it as I've never seen one whiter.
Last night was the first in the van and there were loads of strange noises to keep us awake. The site has a phone and after Karen hung up on her parents I tried to call my mam & dad. As I did a Kangaroo came up behind us which was pretty amazing. Karen was really scared and I was slightly worried. Some plonker had left a loaf of bread out for it to eat so it was there for ages. Eventually we gave up on the phone and went to bed. When we woke up the 'roo was outside our van! I guess i6t thought that we were going to feed it.
Looking forward to more adventures tonight when we get to a place called Eden at the southern tip of New South Wales before heading into Victoria tomorrow towards Melbourne.
