It’s so easy to get used to sleeping in, eyes open, morning Sweety…ahhh it’s 8am….noice! Stepping back in time again in the dining room for breakfast at The Riversleigh.

Slept like a babe!! Karl, yeah not so much (he never sleeps well on the first night, but you’d never know by his snoring…ooops did I say that!). Woke up with a sore throat and a blocked nose…noooooooo! Not the way to start a holiday. Drugs – check and we get started on our day. …

Its 9:30 before we leave home, partly cos we had a sleep in but mainly because we were hoping the rain would stop….ha! Rained all the way out of Sydney, I was soaked…my gear is no longer waterproof 🙁 Fuel at Pheasants Nest and Karl takes a turn off at Marulan that takes us through …
