The First Road Trip to Sandon Point

45 minutes into the trip to Sandon Point.... car overheats, radiator blows, and tow truck picked us up. Thank God AAA in North America covers you in Australia. Slakey and I spent the next five hours in Penhurst, looks like a town out of middle America. Finally the car is somewhat fixed and we continue onto Sandon Point. Of course we got lost, but we ended up finding the beach. The surf was epic.

Car broken on the highway.

Jack the Ripper. Guide told us this Croc killed all 12 female Crocs that they tried to breed him with. Now he lives in the zoo by himself unfit for the wild.
