That makes for a range extension of several hundred km for the Bells Phase !!!!!

We are at Mountain View Lake Caravan Park. Peaceful, and full of wildlife!

Thankyou everyone for answering, we are slowly learning more about the 'true' Aussies, might have left it a bit late...but better now than never.

Yes, it is my photograph, taken about 100 metres from our Caravan. Am off to climb a mountainous hill with two other women today...with camera!
