The end of summer

This past weekend I spent some time along the Great Ocean Road in The Otways National Park. It was nice to get away and we went for long walks that led to waterfalls, found a small camping ground by a cliff and woke up early to go for a chilly swim at a secluded inlet. While it is summer at the moment, a cool change did come through, bringing welcome rain and grey and grisly skies. As much as I love living in the city, a part of me still loves being in a more open spaces. In the future I'd be very content living amongst dense trees and a near a bubbling stream, foraging wild mushrooms and fruit, tending to chickens and wearing long crazy dresses, knits and Hunter boots.


Trekked to two lovely waterfalls.


Coffee post morning dip in the ocean (what i imagine jumping into the Nordic Seas might be like).


Incredible site from our camping ground.


Awesomely sappy tree.
