Watsons Bay to Rose Bay walk Once the weekend came Jay and Kaede were free from work to join us for a walk. So after breakfast we walked along Military Road from Cremorne to their apartment in Neutral Bay passing this fabulous Nutcote mural by Tim de Haan and Nikki Parker. We were soon on …
We have taken the Warringine Park walk a number of times over the years that we have lived on the Mornington Peninsula but when we had the chance to take a guided walk through this RAMSAR rated wetlands with one of the Mornington Peninsula Shire Rangers with our Australian Plants Society group we were keen …

Spring is definitely the best time in our opinion to visit there. The walk/hike to the Pinnacle is one of the most popular walks. In previous times we have done this walk as a …
Scarborough to Rainbow Beach Yet again it was raining so we ate a leisurely breakfast and kept an eye on the weather. In the end we very quickly packed up and hitched up the caravan just on check out time. Initially we drove west before turning north. Soon enough one of the Glasshouse Mountains came …
