    Chambers of the Black Hand

    April 21, 2025 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    There is absolutely no way that I could add in here all the photos that we took. There is literally hundreds of these amazing carvings in the sandstone, apparently all done with an old fashion butter knife, over 25 years. The miner that did this was working in the mine and making about $1000 a year if he was lucky, then when he decided he would do this instead he’s now sold the mine for millions so his work and effort was well worth it. Stunning to see them.Read more

    The Bowlo

    April 21, 2025 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    Lightning Ridge Bowls Club is massive, the size you would expect of a Leagues club or something. Being the main licensed premises in town, the only other licensed pub is Nobby’s at the Lightning Ridge Resort, it is obviously the main venue for sport and meals.Read more

    Final LR Dinner at the Bowlo

    April 21, 2025 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 20 °C

    Well, for our final night in lightning Ridge, we decided not to go cooking because then it’ll be too much cleaning up to do with packing up the van, so it was the Bowlo for dinner for our final meal before we head off tomorrow morning.
    I went with the schnitzel with Texas topper and Sue took the mixed seafood basket. I reckon the basket would have done us both.    Read more

    Relaxing at the Artesian Pools

    April 23, 2025 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    We’ve been here before and stayed and it’s just lovely to have a lazy day just relaxing and all the different temperature pools, had a good session this morning. Probably come back this arvo. Have another session this arvo or this evening and be fully relaxed for our final homeward journey.
    These pools start in temperature at 28 degrees, then each pool progressed in temperature to 34, then 35, 37, and finally the 39 degree pool. Very relaxing but they recommend no more than 15 mins at a time in the hottest one.    Read more

    The Victoria

    This gorgeous old pub in Goondiwindi, built when grandeur was a sign of wealth. Named after obviously the Queen at the time, not the State of Victoria.

    ANZAC Day Service - Yelarbon

    April 25, 2025 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    As mentioned earlier, we got a tip off in Goondiwindi yesterday that Yelarbon was having a ANZAC Service with a parade and everything and we thought well that’s gonna be a great little place to stop last night and we attended the service this morning.
    Was a fantastic little Service in this tiny little town and we were surprised by people coming from all around to attend it. Started out with a small service at the cemetery honouring the fallen soldiers of the past, we laid wreaths on their stones, then back into town for the parade down the main street, all 400 metres of it, and ended up at the memorial for the civic service and speeches. Was a really fantastic day and I wore some of my Air Force gear but didn’t march as my ankle was playing up.    Read more
