Our Wicked Walkabout

Today we had a busy day… as it often seems on a Sunday.

We began our day with a quick breakfast and headed out for the short walk to the local church, for its 9 am service. Rick had done the research, and found the time on the towns website.

Guess what?

They were wrong. The service was 10 am

All good, next to it was the Shire Office, which had a lovely wrap around porch with shade and a bench.

We spent the time, reading the memorial for the citizens of Nundle who has served. WW1, WW2, Korea and Vietnam.

When one spends an hour at a memorial, you can notice a lot of things. Next time you have time, sit for a while, and be with the town memorial…. It’s a good thing.

The members of the church slowly trickled in, and so we headed over.

After the service and a cuppa with the parish members, we headed back to our RV along the river walk.

We had a brief reset, and Rachel came and took us for a tour of the iconic Nundle things.

We first headed out of town, and to the Sheba Dams.

There was a lovely trail around the reservoir, and we had a we hike

The park is a favourite spot for locals from the shire, in the summer, to picnic, swim and camp. We could certainly understand why. It was at least 10 degrees cooler here!

From there we headed over to the Hanging Rock.

Apparently, there is a well known movie/book in Australia called Picnic at Hanging Rock.

This is not that Hanging Rock.

We then headed over to their house, and were rewarded with a guided tour of the garden. I have to say, I am jealous. I wish I could have a year round garden, with so many fruit trees.

We headed back to our camp site for a wee rest before dinner

Then we headed back to Rachel and Bob’s for a lovely home cooked meal (thanks Bob!! It was Delicious!!) and a selfie.

We said our farewells, and headed back for a good nights sleep, before we head back Sydney way for our last RV adventure.
