Dalgety and the Snowy region

We stayed at the only original town left on the Snowy River (Dalgety) and explored the whole region. We real liked the old town and it was a great base to explore the rest of the region.

Despite staying in a relatively quiet little country town, we got up to some adventures including:

- On the trip in Google maps took us (with the van!) down 30 k's of bumpy dirt road including having to drive through a flock of sheep
- Waiting patiently by the river at dusk and seeing platypuses
- Visiting a brewery down another long dirt road and fording a river
- Dodging kangaroos bouncing along the road with us
- Having to take poor Bosley in to have an emergency operation to have some of his tail cut off!

So quite an eventful week!

Our explorations included Cooma, Jindabyne, Eucumbene Dam, Thredbo and climbed to the top of Mount Kosciuszko (the highest point in Australia).Read more
