Day 102 - Scrubby Creek to Drummer Rainforest - 75km
The landscape flattened out as I was at the Victorian border in no time. My home state and my last crossing, it still hasn't really caught up with me what I've done yet, but crossing the border I did feel something, I was back where I grew up and where my family are.
The road stayed flat from here and I made my way towards Cann River, the next town with petrol as the signs had told me. The sun was out and I was back to just wearing a t shirt and putting on sunscreen.
I passed through forest and you could see where the fires had come through and other places left untouched. The road was realitively quiet apart from the odd logging truck heading north full and south empty.
I didn't quite make it to Cann River but stopped at Drummer Rainforest and went on the little bushwalk instead, past creeks, ferns and the sounds of frogs and birds. I collected some water from the creek and put it through my filter.
I ate and crawled into bed, the frogs and insects lulling me to sleep.
