| Morning in Cowra |
We are starting to feel the pressure of distance vs time. We were up this morning to what looked like another great weather day. The sun was shining on our van while the rest of the campers were still in shadows. Boy, we picked a good spot last night. We are headed out at 09:00, north and east towards the western end of the Blue Mountains. We were already in the Blue Mountains when we visited Katoomba last month but, we want to get to the Hunter Valley wineries north of Sydney and it seemed like a better idea to drive through the scenic mountains than battle the highways and interchanges of Sydney, east of the Mountains. We should be able to reach the winery area in plenty of time tomorrow.

| Public Toilet in Young |
The drive today was pleasant and we had a picinic lunch in Young. We got as far as Bathurst before we stopped to pick up groceries. There was a nice Lions Club park right across from the information centre, on the edge of the cricket pitches, so we parked ourselves and settled in around 4:20. When we were at out lunch spot on Young we knew we were in small town Australia. The public toilet (pictured here) was dedicated in 2011 by the Mayor, Chief of council and the Lions Club chancellor! I'm not sure of they also declared a public holiday at the monumentous event! Obviously the daily driving is getting to me. We hope to be able to spend two nights in the Hunter Valley to relax, check out the wine and hopefully get a Hunter Valley t-shirt or wine glass.
