I am just coming back from a wonderful trip in Australia :) I went there to visit my sister who has been there for about 8 months doing a working-holiday Visa.
She was lucky to go around the whole country, but as I was staying only for 15 days, we had to choose what to see, and we decided to go for a road trip between Melbourne and Sydney.
Here are a few pictures :

Meeting up with my little sister. I hadn't seen her since she left France for Australia 8 months ago. Here we are in Melbourne, the first city of our trip. The day after, we rented a car, and the road trip could begin !

We were joined in our adventure by my old friend Christophe, who's now living in Canada. He came to Melbourne at the same time as me for the trip :) Here on the harbour, "under mushrooms" ...

The first place we stopped, day 1 of the road trip : Phillip Island. After going a little bit off the hiking trails, we found this amazing place.

Venus Bay. We decided to put the tent there for the night and sleep at the sound of the waves. Even if it actually was cold and noisy, but what a great place to be ! ;)

My sister waking up :)

We stopped at a place called "red point" and it deserves its name. This place was unreal, and we saw just in front of us a couple of dolphins and whales swimming.

Christophe playing parrots. Despise the fact that these birds were waking us up every morning by singing very, very loud, I loved them. Very sociable, cute and funny... as long as we had bread to give them.

My sister in front of a crazy tree !

Some cool kangaroos. Most of them are scared of humans. But some just don't care at all :)

One night, we didn't know where to stop, and we saw a sign saying "Mystery Bay" ! What better reason to go there ?!

The bay at Bendalong. This picture summarizes the weather of this trip : unstable, threatening, and giving the paradisiac landscapes a very tormented feeling ;)

A place called Camel Rock. The rocks actually look like a camel in a certain angle ;)

Camel Rock a few seconds later, the weather was constantly changing !
