Day 16 & 17 - Holidays

Day 16 - We left Batemans Bay crossed the border into ACT and headed to Canberra. We spent the day looking around - went to the War Memorial, Parliament House, drove past some of the embassies, we also went to the Australian Mint. We had lunch at Lake Burley Griffin and saw the National Carillon and Captain Cook Memorial Jets. We drove a bit further, crossed back into NSW, brought a 2kg box of cherries (yummo!!) and set up camp at Goulburn.

Day 17 - At Goulburn we went to Riversdale National Trust house - it's beautiful to wander through the old houses. Went to the Rocky Hill War memorial, an amazing Anglican church (the stain glass windows were stunning) and saw the Big Ram. We went to Katoomba to see the Three Sisters, then set up camp at North Ryde in the national park in Sydney. We were treated to a typical Sydney thunder & lightening storm - all show and no rain! LOL Lots of wildlife roaming around the campsite - we got to see a cute possum.
