New South Wales Adventures - Tenterfield to Glen Innes

Hi again followers.
 Today we ventured down the road a bit to Glen Innes via Emmaville. It is suppose to be a tourist drive, but more of just a drive through the country which we didn't mind.
Booked into the caravan park where Lizzy parked the van !! Yah - well it was drive through, but I guess that counts. :)



First off a visit to the Info Centre where we picked up some touristy stuff to do. Next a walk through town to see the what was about. Some nice old buildings were found along the way, with lots of reference to the Celtic culture, tartan signs everywhere.





After lunch we ventured to the "Beardies", which is a historical set of buildings that were once a hospital, but now hold massive amounts of old memorabilia.
Beardies seems to originate from 2 Bearded men who arrived to find good pastures to settle in.

All for tonight lovely ones.

Stay safe and continue to enjoy life.

It was very smooth no seasickness this time :) We got on the 4x4 wheel bus and headed inland to Lake Mackenzie. This was a very picturesque spot. The water was very cool and the sand as white as we've seen it. After this we headed to Central station , the old tree clearing head quarters. Next we headed for Lake Wobby which was a 45 min trek in and 45 out across lots of sand. It sits on a big sand-blow which will eventually disappear. A small fresh water lake with a couple of cat fish in it. Then off to our accommodation for the night. The next day we headed out to run the beach pretty much all day heading all the way up to Champagne Pools. We eventua...
