Hi lovelies,
Yesterday I was finally recovered enough to get out and see some of the beautiful area around Yass.
We decided that we would take the tourist drive to Wee Jasper. The leaflet had 12 items of interest on the route, so we made sure we had our walking shoes and a coat, as it was a cold and windy day.
Alas we did not find the ruins of the Harp of Erin Inn. Coodravale Station, which was once owned by Banjo Paterson was no where to be seen, Swinging Bridge Reserve has no bridge, and Casey's Caves are only open on the weekend. We did however still have a great time and enjoyed the outing.
The road between Yass and Wee Jasper is a little windy and very narrow in places, but some of the scenery along the way is stunning. Due to the weather conditions our photos do not do justice to the prettiness of it.
One of the things we did find along the way were the limestone rock formations. The patterns were amazing and a wonder to see.
There are some cut away signs along the route
Two pretty cool bridges. This one crosses the Murrimbidgee River
and this one the Goodradigbee River.
The area called Wee Jasper Swinging Bridge Reserve is a camping area along the Goodradigbee River and it is very pretty. As this was our turn around point we stopped to check it out and have a quick snack.
We also had a little chuckle at this name for one of the shacks along the river.
Rob has suggested that someone needs to do some checking on the Tourist Drive brochures. I said that I thought that is what we were doing. :-).
All for now lovelies.
Stay safe and keep enjoying life.
Love us.
