Code Red


Our camping trip have been cancelled because the council declared a Code Red day in northern Victoria. That means a very high risk of bushfires and total fire ban!
If your going camping you want to use the BBQ and be able to sit around the campfire at night! So we decided to go next week instead when the weather cools down a bit.

Det blev ingen campingtur for oss denna veckan eftersom risken for skogsbrander var extremt hog. Temperaturen har legat pa over 40 grader i ett par dagar och marken ar valdigt torr. Vi hoppas pa en tur nasta vecka sa jag kan checka av camping i den australienska vildmarken pa min lista!
Det blev en shoppingtur istallet och det kan ju aldrig ga fel.....
Pa fredag aker vi till Melbourne for strand, party och aterigen shopping !
Kommer formodligen fa skicka hem en del av all nyinhandlad packning pa posten, resvaskan var full nar jag kom hit.

We're planning our camping trip and getting everything ready for Tuesday. It's my first time camping in Australia and I'm a bit afraid of snakes, spiders and creepy-crawly insects. Well let's hope it will be easy ! 


Can I handle camping in the Australian Outback ??

The Great Alpine Road

We went for a drive to the snowfields just 1  1/2 hours away from Shepparton, Victoria.
Our destination was Bright, a beautiful town located in the heart of the Alpine Road.
It' a very popular place to visit winter time for skiing and snowboarding.
