Another travelling day for us.  We started out cold due to a power failure at the park.  As a consequence of that, we were the only lights on anywhere to be seen thanks to the backup batteries, but the heater wasn’t working either, so we were probably the coldest too since we were the only ones silly enough to be out of bed this early!

Kel went to have her morning shower and bid a hasty retreat, as since there was no power the instant GAS hot water wouldn’t fire up and a cold shower wasn’t in her mornings plan.

We didn’t have too far to go today, but there was plenty to see and do.  The roads were also winding, undulating and steep with little opportunity for others to pass ol’ wobbly, so we had a fan club behind us for most of the day.  Luckily, since my van rear view camera was on the rubbish pile back at Albany I was blissfully unaware of the goings on behind me.

The Valley of the Giants tree top walk opened at 10am and that’s when we rocked up.  This tree top walk is the original.  It’s only got the walk and none of the fancy towers or cantilever sections like at the Otway Fly.  The walk isn’t the drawcard though, the trees are.  They are certainly tall and majestic.
