Overview

We spend a day along the great ocean road, we then head inland and visit some amazing spots.

We also go looking for the Platypus. We take a 1 km walk into the forest and then we paddle out on to Lake Elizabeth to se if we can find any platypus swimming around.
This is a amazing way to start the day.
We also visit the Redwood plantation as well as a waterfall.
