Day 17 Paronella park. 9.6.18

This morning I went for another walk, just over 2kms. Lovely scenery.



A lovely old Catholic Church being converted to a B & B.



After breakfast we headed back off to Paronella park for a guided tour. While there we booked into the hydro tour for the afternoon and the night tour as well. These were all included in our entrance fee as was 1 nights camp fees. We paid an extra $10 for a second night. Very reasonable 😊

After the hydro tour we went for a short walk along the creek.

Misty rain saw us staying in the 'cubby house' catching up with bits n pieces before we head back for the night tour.
Suspension bridge built by the army in 1988 as part of a bicentennial project.


looked spectacular all lit up


Wow, I'm so glad I didn't let the drizzle put me off doing the night tour.
