Armidale
17 de enero de 2018, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
Weer langzaamaan in het meer bewoonde deel van NSW, doe ik een tour langs een kort (12jr) geleden gesloten goudmijn. De wegen en natuurpark worden nu op kosten van de delvers onderhouden en opgeknapt. Bij een volgende stop zie ik dat in het eerstvolgende stadje het grootste jaarlijkse Elvis festival gehouden wordt, dus de volgende dag het feestgedruis in. Na deze mensenmassa weer leuk de kleine dorpsweggetjes opgezocht, inclusief een bergweg die op een boerenerf lijkt te eindigen, maar verbaasde farmer zet t hek open, en ik kan weer verder.
Nu beland in Armidale, een van de mooiere victoriaans bebouwde steden. De attractie voor mij is de gorge, met een hike naar beneden, 3 uur dalen, en weer 3 uur omhoog.Leer más

Waterfall Way Continued...
19 de abril de 2017, Australia ⋅ 🌙 13 °C
After a cold night (for Aussie) we still managed an outdoor hair wash, etc... unlike the friendly Aussie's in the caravan next to us with their own hot shower. These free (very basic) rest areas area much more social places to camp than most campsites. Hope we will still be doing this sort of thing when we are their age, at 82! We had to get the waterproofs out for our walk at Cathedral Rocks but thankfully the sun came out later in the afternoon. The scramble up and over these huge boulders, finally using a chain to get to the top was brilliant fun. They are huge granite rocks piled up like giant marbles. From here we went along to Wollomombi Gorge and walked to Chandler Lookout where we had a great view of both Wollomombi and Chandler Falls that plunge into an enormous ravine. The 2nd highest falls in Australia at 220 metres. Found another rest area in the nearby tiny hamlet of Wollomombi, on a piece of grassland just across from the small village shop. Wandered across to have a look, turns out that the young couple who have recently taken over also run a pub at the back. About as rustic as it gets, the locals were very friendly and we enjoyed a couple of beers and a long chat. Great to see a slice of backcountry life off the tourist trail.Leer más

42 • Wollomombi Falls
7 de septiembre de 2016, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
Ein eiskalter Wind hat uns recht schnell vom bisher höchsten Punkt der Reise vertrieben. Der Morgen in Guyra (1330 m) war trotzdem recht entspannt, Mia ist wieder ganz die alte und meist quietschvergnügt :)
Unser nächstes Ziel waren die Wollomombi und Chandler Falls, zwei riesige Wasserfälle die sich in eine tiefe Schlucht stürzen. Die Wanderung zu verschiedenen Aussichtspunkten hat sich gelohnt. Und zwischendrin haben wir wieder BBQ gemacht; in Australien mangelt es jedenfalls nicht an schönen Picnicplätzen und öffentlichen Toiletten!
Für Abends haben wir einen stillen Platz an einem Fluss gefunden. Unserer einziger Campnachbar Greg hat uns seinen alten Feuereimer überlassen und gleich noch Feuer gemacht.Leer más

Wollomobi Falls
12 de abril de 2015, Australia ⋅ 🌬 19 °C
The highest waterfall in NSW and the highest in Australia! Located at the "Oxley Wild Rivers" NP, the "Wollomobi Falls" have an single drop of 220 metres.
When you drive along the tabelland you wouldn't imagine that just next to the road is such an immense Gorge! An very impressive view!

Der "Wollomobi Wasserfall" ist mit seinen 220m der höchste in NSW und der zweithöchste in Australien.
Als ich die Straße auf dem Tabelland entlanggefahren bin, hat es als eine ganz normale Ebne ausgesehen! Nicht zu ahnen dass (fast) direkt an der Straße eine riesige Schlucht sich auftut. Allesamt eine sehr imposante Erscheinung!Leer más

Train from Armidale to Sydney was pleasant, made more so by being met by Susan at Central. She trained with me to the airport, where it was really quick and smooth through the the gates and it no time at all I was through Customs. Plenty of time for a glass of wine, a snack, a few phone calls and a walk.

Plane left on time and was pretty full.Leer más

Waterfall Way
18 de octubre de 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
Früh aufgestanden um heute den Watterfall Way zu fahren. Diese schöne Panorama-Straße schlängelt sich an einem Berg entlang. Leider waren Wolken am Berg, weshalb wir nicht wirklich die schöne Aussicht im Tal sehen konnten, aber als wir so entlang gefahren sind, ist uns ein Schild aufgefallen, mit der Aufschrift "Waterfall Way Lookout Point". Diesem Schild folgten wir und so kamen wir doch noch zu unserer schönen Aussicht.

Ein bisschen nervig war allerdings die Rückfahrt, die durchs Landesinnere ging. Eine relativ monotone Strecke, aber dafür trotzdem schöne Landschaft. Fast wäre uns dabei der Sprit ausgegangen, weil wir nicht realisierten, dass 80 Kilometer lang kein einziges Dorf kommt. Zu Gute kam uns da eine Strecke die 18 Kilometer lang bergab ging. So schafften wir es gerade noch in der letzten Rille zur Tankstelle.Leer más

Costumes, Cleaning and heaps of fun
7 de abril de 2017, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Who would've thought cleaning and tidying up could be so much fun?
The drama department finally found a key for one of their store rooms and of course that one looked like an absolute mess.
One day before we left for the holidays we started cleaning and throwing things out because most of the things in there were ready for the bin (we even found mummified lemons).
Some of the costumes were still wearable though and we had heaps of fun dressing up in all the crazy ways
possible. And of course we took pictures of our favourite creations. 💕Leer más

Auch ohne Wasser. Aber grandiose Aussicht. Und dem Vogel gefällt wohl sein Spiegelbild nicht.

Armidale, our home away from home
22 de julio de 2016, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
Home at last. 💕
We had the first weekend to settle in. We got our own little house on the school ground which by the way is enormous.
The school even has its own equestrian center as well as a junior school, a gym with a pool, four boarding houses and of course the senior school buildings. 💕
I work in Transition which is a class of 3-5year olds.
I love these kids and I love the concept of Transition. It is the perfect combination of learning and playing. We do everything from writing, reading, music, drawing, crafts, swimming, horse riding, gymnastics to excursions to the fire and police station.
There is never a boring day in Transition. 💕
We even decided to get a guinea pig. 💕
Our school has lots of special days and events throughout the year. Since we arrived we had a Harry Potter night and we dressed up for book week as our favourite book character and also for French day. 💕
The people here and especially the ones I work with are the most welcoming and kind people I could ever wish for. If there is something we need we just have to ask for it (we even got a new TV). 💕
We are slowly getting used to all the colourful birds and the different landscape around here. A lot of the birds look like the ones we have in zoos (especially Rosellas).
I also met my first Australian spider which nearly gave me a heart attack. Just google Hunstman Spider and you will know what I mean.
Apparently they are completely harmless (yet terrifying) not like Magpies (birds) who are the personified devil. Fortunately they only really attack you during nesting season in spring but they can't be trusted all year around.Leer más
