Day 10 - 3/2/2013 - Canberra to Lakes Entrance
Up early and on the road again! We were heading to Melbourne. Instead of backing tracking out of Canberra and onto the Hume Highway, where we have seen most of the surrounding country, we decided to head due south through Canberra and Cooma.

The magpies in the park were drinking out of a bowl of water someone had left out for them and they were walking around with their wings out and beaks open to try and cool down. It was pretty hot just sitting in the shade yet there were some contractors installing solar panels onto the roof of the post office in the middle of the day!
Trying to find shade as well! |
43 deg just after lunch and it stayed there! |
Luckily the heavy rain had held off, and now it was also muggy as well as hot! We arrived at Lakes Entrance at about 5pm, and after a quick setup decided to go for a walk to the beach to try and cool down for a bit.
