Heading Home

Time to pack up and begin the journey home. We've had some great weather in Corryong except for one day, but this morning made up for it with continual rain as we packed up. Kept the kids dry, but we got quite wet!

The drive towards Wodonga of around 100 km's was wet, with some quite heavy rain at one point while descending a steep, winding hill... so it was slow going!

Once past Wodonga it was only another 30 km's to Chiltern where we planned to have a night. It's nice just travelling short distances and taking our time. Chiltern is one of those places we've heard of, seen the sign for it on the Hume Fwy, but never ventured off to have a look. What a nice little town it is. The caravan park is called Lake Anderson Caravan Park, right next to a small lake and only a couple of minutes walk from the historic town centre. Once set up, the sun again shone and we had lunch.  After lunch we walked around town, admiring the well preserved streetscapes, checking out some antique shops and junk shops (personally, I can't tell the difference!) and got some afternoon tea at the bakery (one of the best coffee scrolls I've ever had!)

After our walk around, Zac and I went for a bike ride around Lake Anderson twice - it's not very big. We met these interesting sculpture people on the way...

Later in the day, I returned into town for some more photos once the cars and people had all gone, then caught a nice sunset over Lake Anderson.

Wednesday we head to Mansfield for a night, then head home on Thursday.
