I was excited to get onto a cruise around the lakes today and lunch at the Metung Pub, then back to Lakes Entrance. Unfortunately, the lady told me that I was the only one booked for the day- but I waited 30min to see if anyone else turned up and they didn’t. So that was that plan in shambles.
New plan: go to Nyerimilang Homestead and check out the area here. The homestead has been there since the late 1800s and has amazing views and 250 hectares of farmland attached. The Stuarts owned it as a holiday place and would travel all the way from Melbourne , along the waterways and all the lake systems to come and relax and hunt etc.
I did the walks around the property and then headed to Metung, where I had made a booking for a nice apartment so that I can wake up in a bed on my birthday 😊 .
I unpacked and had a shower then went for a walk around the small township. It was getting nearer sunset so I found a log to sit on by the water and was delighted by the magic that would be my last sunset of my 30s !!! The colours, the reflections on the water, the birds – it was incredible!!!!
I loved it – didn’t want to leave but I had a pub date with a local farmer (been dabbling in the online dating). We had a great fat chat and good laughs!
