Cold night last night, but have woken up to a lovely sunny morning. The Monaro Hwy from Cooma to
Canberra is a lovely road with magnificent scenery. The paddocks are all lush green with dams
brimming with water, also lots of poddy calves and baby lambs. The country looks very healthy. Have also seen lots of big trees in full
white blossom which we are assuming are Crab Apples – they look
spectacular. Stopped at Boorowa for
lunch at the rest area, quaint little town.
We then headed to Darby’s falls via a back road through Gunnary,
Frogmore & Graham. More asphalt
patches than actual road, but beautiful, so worth every km. The free camp for tonight is 496 – Darby’s
Falls which is on the Lachlan River approx. 25kms east of Cowra. Tomorrow we will do the tourist bit in and
around Cowra, then it is off towards Lightening Ridge. Cowra has a history
connected to WW2 Japanese Prisoner of War Camp.
and the most beautiful garden dedicated to the the prisoners.
