Sunday March 7, 2010 – East of Greens Beach

We got a late start however we did go back to the Low Head Lighthouse. We got there just in time to hear the fog horn. It went off regularly for 15 minutes. It was an amazing sound. You could hear the reverb after each sounding. It had a higher pitch tone then a deep one. Volunteers have fixed up the fog horn and sound it at noon on most Sundays. It was another piece of history we happened upon.

After lunch we headed south east to a place called Lilydale. It was so much fun to get there. We took some back roads. We were heading for the Lilydale Falls. It was a nice walk up to the falls. There were two separate falls. This was an after lunch walk which I find a challenge. This was no different. I am really glad I was able to make it to both falls.

We headed back after seeing the falls. On the way on one of our back roads we saw an echidna. It did what they said it would, buried its head and rolled into a ball so its quills faced out. We were able to get one picture of it that turned out. Once home it was nice to find out laundry dry on the line. The day has gotten cloudy. They are calling for rain tomorrow. We could get thundershowers as well. As long as they are not like the ones Melbourne got yesterday.
