Merry Christmas

St Andrew's Cathedral, Sydney ... a great place to worship this Christmas. It is time to take a blog break until sometime in the New Year. I'd like to wish you all a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year.  Thank you for all of your comments and friendship throughout the year, it has made it a great pleasure to record my travels.

Fitzroy Falls 2 of 2

We end this trip with a view of the valley below the falls.

Fitzroy Falls 1 of 2

Fitzroy Falls are in the Morton National Park.

Morton National Park

After lunch we took a drive into Morton National Park. Here the scenery is quite similar to the Blue Mountains. You can tell the photos were from last last year because it was an incredibly hot day and before the extensive rains we have experienced this year has started to fall.  The visibility was extremely poor due to smoke from bush fires.

Lunch

We stopped for lunch at Bundanoon and settled for simple fare ... a typical Aussie pie.

Guns and toys

The stencilled sign at this 'old and junkie' antique shop took me aback it says Guns and Toys.

Antiques

There are quite a few little towns in the area, most with an antique shop.  Here they come in two flavours  - the old and grand to furnish the mansions and the old and junkie where you say "I remember Mum and Dad had one of those".
