Armidale, NSW

I went on a bus tour of Armidale. It is pretty fresh here with a biting wind. The diesel heater warmed up the van nicely before we showered. Just waiting at the RSL for Reece. We are having lunch here....Armidale the city of churches and schools, education. the university of new England campus is enormous.At last 4 private schools here. All very nice.it is the highest city in Australia just under 1000mtr high. All the trees have lost their leaves and the vegetation all brown from the frosts. One month ago all the autumn colours. I expected it to be bigger. But Tamworth is much bigger than here. Will stay another night at the Highland Van Village costing us $26 a night....so se can afford a big lunch. As with a lot of places the beautiful pedestrian mall is like a ghost town now there is  the Armidale Plaza which has Target and all that.
Just going to check the menu then a few pokes.    Go dockers tomorrow.  Love Pen
