CAMDEN, DOWN THE COAST TO WOLLONGONG AND FURTHER SOUTH TO MORUYA

Wedding was fantastic in Camden, had tons of fun catching up with family and friends. What a wonderful part of this country is Camden and surrounds.

 

 

 

 The Australian Botanical Gardens in Camden

 

 We journeyed down to the NSW Rail Museum at Thirlmere. What a fabulous trip down memory lane this was. Only sorry we failed to arrive on steam train ride day.

Next it was down the mountain to the lovely township of Corrimal

 

...and a trip to the Buddhist Temple in Wollongong

 Cock-a-doodle-doo!!!!!!!!

 

 Next it was further down the coast for a fantastic stopover in Moruya.

 Did you know that all the granite in the pilons of the Sydney Harbour Bridge were quarried out of Moruya and shipped up to Sydney. All 40,000 of them. We love our trivia.

Here are a few "happy snaps" of Moruya and the surrounding areas

 

 The historic village of Tilba Tilba, featured in many TV shows and commercials over the years.

 

 Bodalla Anglican Church

Time to head south.........  We scurried down from Townsville, put the Chookpen in for its annual service on the Gold Coast, had our annual sabbatical at Pottsville (we love Pottsville), Kel flew down to Sydney for a 50 year school reunion (big hangover but great fun), we backtracked up to Maroochydore QLD on the Sunshine Coast for a wedding (top wedding) & are now scurrying down to Sydney for another wedding.
