Clarke's Point at Woolich

This little outing was at a reserve in Woolich, which boasted a beautiful vantage point of the city and proved a very tranquil place to be on a sombre, but pleasant morning. I hope you enjoy this week's collection...

Nepean River

Last Sunday we took a drive to Mulgoa to view the Nepean River from Mt Riley's Mountain. The hike was 5.1 km and what we saw when we got there took our breath away! We also took a drive to Weir Reserve where we had a leisurely stroll along the beautiful river... I hope you enjoy these photos, it was a hard slog getting them to you!! ;-)
