Botanic Gardens

Just a few photos from the Botanic Gardens :)





































Day trip - Bathurst

After Nathan saying over and over how much he wanted to see somewhere else in Australia besides the Illawarra, we planned a day trip to Bathurst. It's a little town more inland about 3 hours from where we live.One of the sites on our way there. I found that there is a place in Australia that can remind me of home. It's flat and has nothing much in it...if only it was a corn field then it would have been just like home!



Finally in Bathurst


Coke has a "share a coke with..." thing going on, so I spotted Jeremy finally. Just took a photo of it though since neither of us can stand the taste of it!


Mount Pandrama race track.

Looking up at the top of the track


Where all the people with too much money sit :p


I figured I would not bore you all with the countless photos of every turn in the track. But since this track is a normal road when there is not a race we were allowed to drive it. So Jeremy drove it the right way around (like they would in a real race) and Nathan drove it the other way just to be different.


After we finished with the track, sice that is the only main site in Bathurst, me and Becky got to have our fun, shopping!




Seeing as Australia is not the most Christian based coutry, I guess this is the only way to get people into church?



After shopping (I finally found Orka here! :)it was time to head back home.



Me taking my turn behind the wheel



Becky and Nathan...before they all fell asleep on me


Addy, probably after more lollies from Jeremy ;)


It was a very fun day trip, but after 590km in one day, I sure was glad to be home!
