Tiki tour in reverse

Sadly Baradine is over, will do a show and tell post or three when we have better internet. Yesterday we drove from Baradine to Dubbo.
Last look at Camp Cypress
Hippopotamus Rock between Baradine and Coonabarabran
These planet models are along the highway and each has a geocache, so we had to stop 😁 thankfully Raewyn found it as I was about to give up.
The view out the window as we were driving
The next cache stop complete with orb spiders
I had to yell stop to Raewyn to stop her walking through the edge of a huge spider web. She was trying to get a better angle for a 📸!!
We found these painted screens in Gilgandra, while stopping for a cache.. they depict the history of the area.

We are now in Dubbo and today are heading off to the Zoo .
Have a good one.

Tiki tour day 3

Today started with a visit to Sew Fab in Narrandera, such a beautiful shop and lovely helpful staff
From there we had a look at the painted water tower


Beautiful.
Off up the Newell Highway we went, we had a stop in Parkes and met Elvis
One outside and
One inside 😁
And one with my travel buddy!! 🥰

Our final stop was at Gilgandra where we had a wander and did an Adventure Lab



The Cooee walk started from here back when volunteers were dropping off for WW1, two men started a recruitment walk from Gilgandra to Sydney, on the way they gathered over 200 men.
Lovely old building in the later afternoon sun.
Off for a cuppa now.
Happy stitching.
