Drive to Lakes Entrance and Snowy River Road - Australia - DAY 2

Day 2 - Jindabyne - Thredbo - Mt Kosciuszko Summit - Woodonga - Melbourne

Last night's spicy food from the Indian restaurant took the toll and everybody was awake by 7 AM to release the heat .Where alarm clock fails,these kind of accidental/innovative ways works very well to make an early start in the road trips.Our next destination was Thredbo,which was part of the Snowy river shire.The time of the year we were going to the place was off season and we were not expecting any or much snow.

We reached Thredbo Village and the place looked deserted with one or two people around,that re-confirms that we have reached in wrong season.Anyway,we went to the cable car station to reach at the top of Mt Kosciuszko.Fees was 32$ per person as far as i remember.



And this what it looked like from the top.




From the point where cable car left us,we had to drag our self for 6 kms to reach Mt Kosciuszko Summit.Which looked piece of cake initially but later on it ended on the halfway and we returned from Kosciuszko look out.







Not much ice was left on the top as well but it was damn cold out there.





Happy faces 


Flora at the top.



















We returned back to the cable car and reached at the base.Return journey from Thredbo to Melbourne was a straight drive,where i contributed on the relaxing part.Advantage of not knowing 'How to drive' I say 

Cheers
