Trip Summary
After rounding off the conference in Melbourne, we were ready to explore Victoria a bit. Our first target was Wilsons Prom (Wilsons Promontory) in the southeast of Melbourne. Before driving "all the way" into Wilsons Prom, we started with an exploration of the Dunes of the Big Drift. Following a well-marked trail from the road, we easily connected to the dunes. All this rather large area of sand dunes, surrounded by green nature (and the sea in the west), is a bit surreal and really an interesting spot to visit. Definitely worth the short walk! :-)
