遠離塵囂在經過數天的雪梨同志慶典狂歡之後，我們馬上飛到墨爾本，接著開車到奇異果熊忘年之交，位在YANAKIE的農場，開始我們的
＂維多利亞州之旅＂
（關於維多利亞州的必去景點，請參考文後附註）
我跟小熊開玩笑，
說這一趟是＂靈修＂之旅
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YANAKIE？在哪？？
維多利亞州？
哪？？
就墨爾本那一個州啦！！
２０１１年當奇異果熊提出這個點子之後，我馬上冒出來上面的一連串問題．．．．
Yanakie （亞娜吉）是維多利亞州的一個農業小鎮，距離墨爾本約185公里；這個地點本身並不是非常特別，但卻是到達墨爾本六大景點威爾遜岬國家公園的必經之地（Wilsons Promontory National Park）
（人口．．．．２７０人？？？？
這個鎮還真的很少人呢！！！）
英文好的，可以稍微看下面的英文介紹（當然用GOOGLE翻譯也很方便啦！）
Yanakie is positioned on the narrow strip of land which joins the Wilsons Promontory National Park with the south coast of Victoria, located south of the major centre of Foster and on the opposite side of Shallow Inlet to Sandy Point.
With Yanakie being the last town before the entrance gates to the Wilsons Promontory National Park, it has become a popular spot for visitors to the park and surrounding areas to stay at. There are numerous accommodation options including cottages, cabins, Bed & Breakfast and caravan parks, many offering spectacular views across the waters surrounding Yanakie and of the mountain ranges that traverse Wilsons Promontory.
The commercial centre of Yanakie is small, consisting of a general store, petrol station and public hall on the road to Wilsons Promontory near Millar Road. Most of the residents in the area are either involved in the tourism industry or in dairying, with large farms of cattle located in green fields surrounding the town.
The coast on the western side of Yanakie fronts Shallow Inlet, which is a calm body of water, popular with boating enthusiasts. On the east coast fronting Corner Inlet there are boat launching facilities at Duck Point and a water front caravan park. Duck Point offers spectacular views towards the south and east of many of Wilsons Promontory's mountain peaks and coastal features. ......

在前幾年認識小熊時，他就有跟我提過這位朋友。這位出生在城市，個性堅毅、勇敢的女性，在年輕時代投入農村地區房地產有成之後，就不斷地在維多利亞各城市停留，而在６０歲生日前，將所有的產業結束，毅然決然地在這個動物比人多的地方退休．．．．．
而她的人生體驗，很值得阿牛和奇異果熊將來澳洲生活的重要參考，所以可以說這一次旅行，不只是身心方面的充電，也況展了我們的眼界，可以說收穫真的非常的大！！
話說維多利亞州實在是太大了．．．．．我和小熊都決定以YANAKIE為主要點，把維多利亞南部地區先玩過一次，之後到墨爾本停留幾天
至於維多利亞州剩下的好地點，就等未來有機會，或是退休之後再慢慢開露營車玩完吧！！
（目前呢？？？）
世界這麼大，當然是以外國旅行為主呀．．．
誰說享受世界旅行是只有背包客才能享受的呢？
