We are now in the very pretty town of Mittagong, the Gateway to the Southern highlands. Quite a cramped caravan site especially after the wide open spaces of Bendeela Recreation Park in Kangaroo Valley. but it is OK we had our neighbour Shane (tree lopper from NZ) in for dinner the other night which was fun to have some company!!!!! We have done a big drive around yesterday the country very pretty, green rolling hills, magnificent trees and huge hedges around the most spectacular houses and estates. The entry statements quite speccie. We stopped at Berrima where these 2 pics are outside the now empty Berrima Jail beautiful sandstone buildings. We understand the locals are very keen to utilise the building as a tourist attraction but the authority not agreeable The jail is on the main street as are the shops. fabulous touristy shops full of lovely home wares, coffee shops, perfumery (you can make your own) and chutney pickle shops. and they are so well planned and laid out. Margaret River has a lot to learn!!!!!!!
