Well we leave Tumbarumba today and had planned to travel further south, that was until we tried to free camp and the fridge will not work on gas...........................mad  We are now so over it....... we call into Benalla and have to pay a LOT OF MONEY at a caravan park as it is (yes you guessed it a weekend and also Australia Day weekend - What joy, what rapture)  the park was not of 3 star quality either.....

We decide to head for Shepparton Victoria and try for work there - we can also get the toilet fixed (no its still not flushing, hey minor detail) and also get the gas situation sorted because not only does the fridge not work on gas, neither does the stove or oven - Oh Happy days!!!!!!!!

We book into the BIG 4 Shepparton East - its a great park with jumping pillow, giant chess, playground and a pool - the girls are in heaven once again.:D

We visit Glenrowan - the famous Ned Kelly country and the girls learn all about Ned, his family and his ways!!!

We get all the problems with the van fixed, Matt has tried the fruit picking here, however its not worth the $$$ paid, so he is working at a local dealership on the tools again - we will stay here till end of April, catch up on the girls home schooling (much to their disgust!!!), we are flying Jacob down for the Easter school holidays so we are looking forward to that.
