Deep Lake campsite near Derrinallum

Making our way toward Echuca/Moama on border Vic/NSW. Need to get van inspected for rego & much easier to get it done in NSW



This is the view across the road from campsite @ Deep Lake
"Elephant mountain"







What a view for $5 a night

Dragonflies @ Deep Lake

We have headed inland again after spending 5 days @ Warrnambool



We camped @ Deep lake for couple nights & were lucky enough to watch these dragon flies come to life from their cocoons



It was really magic watching this happen right in front of our eyes
Wonders of natures !!!
