So happy to finally see the Aurora Australis with my own eyes from the front of our deck looking up the road and also out towards Wilson’s Prom. My photos capture the start of it whereas Debra Eldridge photos are much more vivid and clear taken later on. (See bottom right photo). How wonderful to see it happening here.

Besides Paddington Bear, who likes orange marmalade? Our guests love it. I have a secret ingredient which I will share with you - a dash of Cointreau. The alcohol cooks out but the flavour remains.

We’re excited to share that Star of the South has secured one of the first Australian feasibility licences for offshore wind – with a second licence awarded to our new Gippsland project Kut-Wut Brataualung.
▪️Star of the South is an up to 2.2 GW project proposed 10 km off the coast between Woodside Beach and Port Albert.
▪️Kut-Wut Brataualung is an up to 2.2 GW project proposed 45 km off the coast.
Built to their full potential, these two projects would:
💡 Power more than 2.4 million homes
📈 Inject $14 billion into the Australian economy, including up to $7 billion in the Gippsland region
👷♀️ Create up to 12,000 jobs over the life of the projects, including hundreds of ongoing long-term Gippsland-based jobs during 30 years of operations.
Both projects are being progressed by Southerly Ten – a specialist offshore wind energy developer for Australia and New Zealand, unveiled today by the team behind Star of the South and leading global fund manager Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners.
We’re excited to continue working with Traditional Custodians, communities and our partners to develop responsible projects that are right for the region.

We made a start on building a new vegetable garden. First we have to demolish the old structure that we inherited. The soil is very good and we will use it and mix it with our compost. We already have 2 raised garden beds to put in place once we have done the preparation. It’s a big job and work in progress.

A distressed seagull was seen floating on the water at #portalbert in #gippsland after a flock of his seagull mates circled him. A local came to his rescue with the help of others and cut the fishing line that was completely tangling the seagull.
