The weather was not likely to improve dramatically temperature wise so we forged ahead! The rain thankfully was only intermittent, although the cold wind was somewhat unrelenting...
The group walked the Merimbula boardwalk to get our step counts up and then headed down to Eden. We learnt about the town's whaling history before going to Aslings Beach Rockpool. It was enough of a mini adventure to keep the children happy, clambering up rocks and playing chicken with the rough waves...Lunch was a simple affair at Fry Daze. Unfortunately the coffee man from our last trip had moved on. And just in case you were interested, Oma reported that the toilets at the Eden Visitor Centre was super clean! Upon speaking to the staff, we decided to abandon our plan to go to the Ben Boyd Tower. We headed home for coffee, wine, cheese and chocolate instead!
The adults dined at Valentina's. The food was excellent and it was nice to have some children free time. Tomorrow will be our last day with the Ongs so let's hope the weather co-operates!
