Day 2 in a micro-van

Another 400 or so kilometres on day 2 and we arrived at Hamlin Bay, a beautiful beachside campsite. En-route, we stopped at Walpole National Park and did a tree-top walk around a forest of 300-400 year old Tingle trees.
These trees can survive pretty much anything, even fire. Their roots are quite shallow, so they spread the base of their trunk out wide enough to give them more stability, which means they can have a split in the middle big enough to drive a car into. This is Mike on one of sky bridges.. It was a bit like being kicked off “I’m a celebrity get me outa here…” but unfortunately we didn’t get welcomed at the end by Ant and Dec ;-)

The sunset a few metres from our pitch was, as you can see, quite amazing.
