David has neglected the blog for almost three months, but here's a quick summary of the rest of March:
Long weekend of 12-14 March 2011 (the 14th was Canberra Day): we went to Albury to visit Leigh Black (a science teacher who went on exchange to Kamloops a couple of years ago), and then on to the mountains near Bright, where we camped at a beautiful spot by the Buckland River in the Riverview Caravan Park, and toured the gorgeous gorge on Mount Buffalo.

Our magnificent second-hand tent |
Delicious beers at the Bright Brewery on Sunday evening (Jen really liked the raspberry lambic), and most excellent fish & chips in Corryong on the way home.
|
Just one of many spectacular views of the gorge on Mt. Buffalo |
The Snowy Mountains are truly amazing, a vast area of bleached dead trees owing to the massive fire of 2003.
16-19 March 2011: four consecutive days of flying!
20 March 2011: occasional light showers, so we had a look at the Molongo River gorge just outside Queanbeyan. Not as grand as the one at Mt. Buffalo, but a very pretty sight just the same.

25-27 March 2011: the long-awaited visit to Jervis Bay! We visited the Botanic Gardens, did some snorkelling, and saw lots of rosellas and rainbow lorikeets (as well as kangaroos, wallabies, and an echidna).
