Road trip from Sydney to Melbourne

We took five days to drive from Sydney to Melbourne on both the Princes Highway (along the coast) and the Alpine Way (through the "mountains").
Everywhere, I got the feeling that landscape was dominated by eucalyptus trees. Small and compact close to the coast, luxuriant and dense in the rainforest, skinny and burnt in the "mountains".

As you can see it is raining quite a lot on our trip through the rainforest
