Today we arrived in Jindabyne, a small alpine town about 100 km south of Canberra. As soon as we saw the town, Karl and I agreed that we probably should have come here instead of heading north in the first place. Jindabyne looks a whole lot like Kelowna (minus the crowds) AND it has not seen any considerable rain in close to a month. Should've, could've, would've…
Alright, that's not fair to say. Despite the rains, we did have a great time in the north, especially in Bangalow, and especially on Australia Day :), but heading north and then coming back down south has simply been way too much driving and it has taken a bit of a toll on us all.
We thought we learned this lesson in Hawai'i, but it seems we are quick to forget our lessons. Going forward, we are adopting a "less is more" approach to this trip. Less driving around, less worrying about all the awesome spots we might be missing. Less packing up. Less setting up. Less taking town.
More time to enjoy "US"
Cheers,
Mira

Wow! It really does look like Kelowna there! Neat!
It was pretty much what I imagine Kelowna looked like 15 years ago - you know, before all the mansions and such. We only stayed a couple if nights, but we really liked it there.
