Week 12 Broken Hill - Blue Mountains - HOME!!!!!!!!!

GeoCentre - Some funny memorabilia - Safety First!
Broken Hill - Lookout

Friends having fun!


Playing games with friends and family



Visiting more family

Only a short drive of just over 300kms to Broken Hill today. We were there in time to go sightseeing. First stop was the town lookout and then the Albert Kersten GeoCentre where we looked at the famous silver tree. In the afternoon we went fossicking in an area about 13kms out of town where the ore body is at the earths surface. Kids had heaps of fun!

Early morning wake up and we left for the Blue Mountains a 6.30am. Travelled 1172kms today. Arrived at my mothers place a 9.30pm.

We spent 3 nights in Wentworth Falls visiting friends and family. Met up with Brian, Mel, Nieve and Angus again at Nanny's place. Also saw some of Gavin's sisters and their kids - the biggest thrill was meeting Polly (one month old).

Leaving tomorrow for HOME! We want to get there before the end of the long weekend. Avoid the rush and traffic.
