For our honeymoon, we headed off in our little campervan and drove from River Bend to Tibooburra, stopping to bushwalk and climb rocks and look for birds and lizards and bugs and fish along the way...
The Grampians

Heading off to go bushwalking near Mt Zero.

Howard climbing rocks. One day he wants to bring all his gear back and climb Taipan Wall.

The view from the top of Mt Stapylton. A lovely spot for lunch.
Hattah-Kulkyne and the Murray River

Our home away from home, nestled in the tall Red Gums beside the Murray River at Hattah-Kulkyne National Park. (We later moved the van because of concerns about tree limbs falling on us in the middle of the night...)

The Murray River at dawn...
On the road...
Big Lizzie! What an incredible machine...

The confluence of the
Murray and Darling Rivers. These are the two major rivers in eastern Australia. Unfortunately, they're not really flowing at the moment - we were told that they only look so full because water is backed up from the weirs downstream. [Thanks a lot,
Cubbie Station!]

Did you know your grandfather drove around on Big Lizzie?
Actually, it was our great-grandfather (Grandpa Burdett). That's part of the reason we stopped there. Plus, Howard just likes big machines with big gears (he paints a lot of gears...).
