Park Benches Adventures Part 2

Well we landed safe and sound in Sydney on Thursday to a warm Autumn day.  Our first priority was to get to George so we found the train station bought our tickets and were on our way – I have to say that by now we were both feeling pretty tired, having gotten up at 2am to get to the airport, so I fell asleep on the train – how do I know this a) Tony told me I was snoring – whatever!!! And b) my head kept falling off my neck.

Anyway we after an hour on the train we were in East Richmond and off to find our boy – but first the half hour walk – thank goodness it wasn’t as hot as when we left – and there he was nicely wrapped up (it took us a good half hour to unwrap him – gosh we did a good job) just as we left him and whats more he started first time without even a grumble. 

After we unwrapped and packed up George it was off to the supermarket to stock him up and find something for tea and then we booked into the Richmond club for the night.

From Richmond we headed south – stopping at Bald Hill lookout for the night and admiring the Austin Marton that parked next to us......  

and view from the lookout down to the 655m Sea Cliff bridge which you may or may not be able to see, essentially it was built in 2005 because the cliff face was so unstable and kept slipping so they built a bridge out over the sea. 

The next morning was typically Hamilton – ie foggy so after breakfast we drove down the road and walked the bridge before carrying on to Shellharbour. 

Pelicans are incredible I am amazed at what these big birds can balance on, 

caught up with a few Rotarians at the Sunday Market, what a brilliant spot for a market - they had just over 55 stalls, with yummy food and goodies to be sampled

remembered one of the reasons i love travelling like we are, 

spectacular sunrises and beautiful breakfast spots

called in to check out the Kiama blowhole which wasnt that spectacular but the wind was coming from the wrong direction, we could still see the effect though

AND....drove around Jervis bay which although was very beautiful and had lovely silica sand was a bit disappointing but I think that was mainly because of the weather which is not that great.   

Now we are in the lovely beach town of Ulladulla and still heading South.

Love to you all - Janine and Tony
