North Coast
Madge and I packed our winter woolies, donned multiple layers and headed north. First stop was Gloucester where a hot drink at The Roadwarriors Cafe was useful in warming the cockles of the heart. Onward and upwards to the lookout before arriving in Walcha where it wasn’t very cold overnight at all. The next morning …

Happy With That. Victoria: January 2014.
So we left Maccas about 9ish on Tuesday 7th Jan for another look at more Victorian roads. This time it was Moey, Sideways, DD, and Lucky.
