Our holiday in Victoria

September 2007

One of the main places we had planned to visit on our recent holiday in NSW and Victoria was the Cranbourne Botanic Gardens. These gardens are about a hour by freeway south east of Melbourne. When I say an “hour” I realise that this is a rather rubbery figure. Melbourne’s freeway system leaves a little to e desired as we found out later in the day. The South Eastern Freeway quickly becomes a parking lot during peak traffic times.

During our short stay in these gardens we went for an hour long walk in the bush section of the gardens. We didn’t have time to visit the newer planted and landscaped section. On the road in and on our walk we saw some interesting signs warning of the wildlife in the area.
