TRIP to CANNING STOCK ROUTE Day 7

18 June 2012

STAGE 1 Jindabyne to Curtin Springs  DAY 7

BLINMAN
A very cold night last night. We only surfaced when the sun melted the ice off the windows. Our fridge temperature had gone crazy according to the temperature gauge. We knew it was incorrect as everything was very cold. So we decided to change the batteries in the thermometer unit. We visited the general store to get the batteries and then visited the café gallery. The gallery was fabulous. Some stunning work.

Hubby then went on a tour of the Blinman copper mine. I didn’t feel like going underground so just chilled out.

Afte lunch we went for a drive to see Glass Gorge and Parachilna Gorge. The tree trunks are just so interesting. Some look so different when viewed from different angles.  As we walked along the gorge this was the view of the tree.


After we passed it it was a very different view of the same tree.



You can feel the power of the water that gushes down these gorges when it rains.




We finally caught up with our nephew and his partner at the pub on their return. We had a lovely long night catching up.
