So we're on our way to Victoria. Jean has some medical appointments in Melbourne in a week or so, so it's just quick stops on the NSW Far South Coast (and top of Vic). Last two days we've been to Tura Beach, Merimbula, Eden and Mallacoota.


TURA BEACH


We stopped in at Tura Beach on our way to stay in Merimbula. We didn't see much but it was nice.

It has beautiful views from the two grass greens.

MERIMBULA


We checked out the Merimbula -Imlay Bowling Club


ree

You can see it from miles away.

ree

The Sapphire Club is quite big inside.

ree

With an outdoor area which overlooks the synthetic greens.

ree

The two greens are under cover.

ree

There were some people rolling up when we got there.

ree

We understand parent clubs that have spent millions on greens and covers wanting to get some money back for that but we have a policy - we don't pay for rollups!

ree

EDEN


Eden is as far south as we go in NSW. Next stop is Victoria again.


ree

It's a nice little clubhouse.

ree

We couldn't play today because we had to come from Merimbula but we managed to catch the ladies before they went out. We had a great chat!

ree

There are two grass greens. The first looks unused.

ree

The greens were opened in 1974. The silver anniversary was in 1986.

ree

The main green looks good.

ree

It's the Lyle Cronk Green.

MALLACOOTA


After we got early check in at our Eden Caravan Park we took an hour's drive down to Mallacoota to check it out. We were supposed to stay here but Jean had trouble getting in contact with the club on Messenger. She saw they hadn't updated their page for two years. Then she went onto the Bowls Victoria site and found that Mallacoota wasn't there. She assumed it had closed so cancelled our trip. When we were at Tathra they said they had a game at Mallacoota - they are in NSW! So we had to drive down in a day.

We got a glimpse of the clubhouse through the window.

ree

It's nice with the tables and chairs outside.

ree

It seems the club's been around 25 years.

ree

It's a good plastic synthetic green.

ree

With the obligatory snakes!

ree

Someone's done a good job on the garden.

ree

Jean managed to catch a little blue wren in the garden.

ree

Lovely things on the NSW Far South Coast!
