Lakes Entrance short break

Took a short break from the Quaama cottage building to meet with a friend and do a lovely cruise on the Gippsland Lakes.
Here is the story in images:

Free camped at Genoa on the way there and then on the return a free-camp about 10m nth of of Lakes Entrance.

Genoa Free Camp and all my neighbours

The overnight digs replete with dinning table & BBQ and rain cover

This pair serenaded me on my arrival
