Day 1
- We (My parents and I plus 2 other families) left to go to Bright
- We stopped over in Traralgon to have breakfast
- While driving my dad’s door flew open which was scary
- More driving
- “Look country girls” – my Ma (when she saw these two girls)(my parents are strange)
- Stopped in a place outside Bairnsdale for lunch
- Fell asleep and woke up to see beautiful scenery, there were all these green hills and oh it was so nice
- Went past a little cute looking town called Omeo
- I started listening to Black and White (it’s been a while since I’ve listened to the album fully) and looked out the window to see more beautiful scenery. There were heaps of trees with their colourful autumn leaves and there was also rainbow and at that moment everything felt nice. Black and White is such an amazing album; I really do need to buy it.
- Arrived in Dinner Plains (which is where we stayed). It was sort of odd looking, it was like an estate in the middle of nowhere and it had hotels and bars and the rest of it was houses. The area was quite big though.
- Each house was different looking and had a different name. Ours was called Woodson...not the coolest.
- It was three storeys high and pretty cool
- I found out they had wireless there so I got pretty happy
- We found some old tapes so A (21), R (17) and I watched Madeline and Where’s Wally.
- S who is a 9 year old boy started singing Bad Romance which was pretty funny
- Internet connection was gone so I didn’t know what to do
- Played uno with S and Sa (8 year old girl)
- Everyone started playing cards except me and my mum who went to sleep while I watched We The Kings Podcasts
Day 2
- Was listening to music when R asked me if I was listening to Michael Buble. “No...it’s Panic! At the Disco”
- Drove to Bright, the path was full of curves and took a little while but we finally got there
- Went for a little walk
- There was a market thing going on so we looked around
- Several people kept aww-ing at Scooby and went on about how cute he was, some people came up and touched him
- We left and went to this place called Mt Beauty
- Went in a maze
- Had lunch in a park which had a really nice view of these mountains but I couldn’t get a photo because of the sun
- Started heading back to Dinner Plains, it was getting dark at 5
- The sky around the mountains looked pink and ah it was so nice, once again couldn’t get a photo
- Around 6 it was completely dark and dear god the drive back was freaky
- When we were near Mt Hotham there was fog and you literally couldn’t see anything in front of you and the road was all winding so it was a scary drive back
- Once we were back everyone started playing cards and watching Miss Congeniality so I went on my laptop
Day 3
- Went to Mt Hotham and went on a chairlift that took us to the top of the mountain
- Walked back down
- We wanted to go back into Bright or go see Mt Buffalo but the kids started complaining and say they wanted to go back to Dinner Plains (gosh they can be annoying) so we went back
- I was kneeling down and fixing Scooby’s leash when my mum yelled out my name, I looked up and saw the car in front of me reversing. So bloody close to getting hit and the driver and no idea I was there.
- The kids wanted to go pony riding so we talked to the people but they said the ride would be on later
- They then wanted to go bike riding so the parents were talking to the bike people
- A was holding onto Scooby then this dog came out of nowhere and started attacking Scooby and everyone was yelling and I ran towards him. A picked him up but the dog jumped up and bit Scoob’s tail and Scooby screamed. I finally got to him and held on to him, thank god he wasn’t hurt, the other dog had grabbed onto his fur and not flesh. I don’t know what I would have done if he got hurt. The owner came and started apologising and told us her dog had never done that before
- We decided to go bush walking to see a waterfall so we started looking for the track which took a while. This led us to go to the back side of the place and the houses here were much prettier.
- We found the path and walking, it was all downhill and it was pretty fun. I was up front because everyone else were really slow, my mum fell over (I missed it) because it was really slippery and she wasn’t wearing the right shoes
- Got to the waterfall and it was a tiny little thing and I was the only one who went up close to see it because no one else wanted to cross the water.
- When I was coming back I ended up splitting my jeans around the thigh area (so not cool now I have to pairs of split pants, I really need to go shopping)
- The walk back was a killer
- It was all uphill so it was quite hard and it was really hot and I was wearing a long sleeved top which made things worse
All that to see this little thing
- Went back to the house while the kids went on their pony ride
- The rest of the night was very dull, one of the uncles was watching a movie so I couldn’t watch tv. Everyone were doing their own thing so once again I went on my laptop.
Day 4
- Left Dinner Plains and started heading home
This is the house we stayed in, you can’t really see it because of that tree
- We stopped for petrol and I got a Maxibon and it was wonderful
- I actually can’t remember the last time I had ice cream, it’s been a couple of months
- We stopped in Sale for lunch
- More driving then finally home
I must say out of my 13 years of living here, this was the dullest and most uneventful trip we’ve ever been on
Oh here are a couple of houses in Dinner Plains
This one was my favourite
When I came home I watched the new episode of Doctor Who and it was asvgadfbsfbfnsfs
It messed with my head a bit so I hope some things will be answered in the next episode
