NYE & Camping at Cobram

---

Christmas this year was at Sean's parents house. There was a bit of a party first on Christmas eve. On Christmas Day we had turkey (and free range chicken for me!) which was roasted on the barbie. Yes you can roast stuff on a bbq (you just need one with a lid!). There was Christmas crackers, pudding and all the usual suspects. The weather - cold & rainy just like home!!!

For New Year's Eve we headed over to Vedran's place for a bit of a barbie. We had KANGAROO!!! Yummy! For the countdown we went to North Brighton beach. From here we could see the fireworks in the city. It was a great night even if I didn't go for a swim. Just as we were leaving though I feel on the rocks and cut my hand pretty bad. I even ended up going to the doctor the next day as it got infected. Yuck! If only someone had told me we were going to the beach I wouldn't have worn heels!!

After New Year's Sean & I took a few days off work and headed north to Cobram for a bit of camping by the Murray River. We stopped off in Shepparton for some supplies - a barbie, camping chairs, an esky and the like! Yes, we were camping in style this time!

Road to the river
It was quite a challenge getting in and out of our campsite. The road eventually turns into a an amazing car shaking machine! It shook my car so much we lost a bolt!

Our campsite by the Murray
We camped here for two nights.

Some kangaroos on the way to the campsite
Tasty!!!

Sean and the barbie
We had sausages this night but the next night we had kangaroo!!!!

Sean taking it easy on the beach
This is (one of?) the longest beach along the Murray. Strange to think of sandy beaches by the river but that's how it is here!

Me on the beach
Look at those white legs!!

Sean by the river
Speedboats are a common sight on the Murray, but at least near the towns they have to slow down!
