After catching up with friends and family in Melbourne we went east to Sale in hope of finding a quiet spot for Christmas. We succeeded! The caravan park was almost empty! We enjoyed nice walks around the lake and through the botanical gardens.
On Christmas morning we went for a drive out to Golden Beach, went for a walk and had a picnic lunch (in the car because it was a bit breezy down on the beach!).
After Christmas we went across to Haddon, south west of Ballarat. We visited the botanical gardens in Ballarat and enjoyed a walk by Lake Wendouree.
