On top of Mt Canobolas

Hang on, we're going on a 'Weeeeee' trip!

Day 327 - Orange I’m not sure what possessed me to set the alarm clock for 6am, especially when we knew we weren’t setting off on the walk until 8am. But anyway, at least it meant we were first in the queue for the shower block! Ha Ha! Oh and don’t act all surprised that we’ve got walks organised already, remember who we’re with! We didn’t want to disturb Tony & Jane too early so ... read more

Welcome, come in, take a seat and enjoy the view! We were lucky enough to be in a position to make one of our dreams come true and it's hard to believe that we can now say we've 'been there and done that! It was the sort of adventure that 'normal people' like us could only dream about, taking a year out of work and travelling around Australia in a caravan towed by a 4WD. Somehow though we managed to turn it into a reality and between April 28th 2009 and April 26th 2010 that's exactly what we did.

MT Canobolas memories
Orange is my home town and I had forgotten the gorgeous view from the top of Mt Canobolas. As a teenager we used to ride horses up the side tracks through he bush while the boys tried to beat us to the top on their motor bikes. Many a night spent camping at the top in the back of a van and just checking out the town below at night was pretty amazing. I must take my boys up there on our next visit. It is amazing the things we take for granted and easily forget. Thanks for your blog bringing back some wonderful memories. Lynette
