SUNDAY 20 APRIL     BATHURST

John decided we should go for a drive and see some of the Blue Mountains, to the east of us.  I think we are both feeling rather frustrated, at having to hang about here.

When we set out, it was a reasonably pleasant day, but half way between Bathurst and Lithgow, rain and fog set in. It was then no day for being able to see the scenery!

Abandoned thoughts of going on further, to the Katoomba area, and maybe walking.

John was not really at ease, driving the Commodore, either.

Went to the Tourist Information Centre in Lithgow, collected some material, then headed back towards Bathurst. When we got back there, it was still fine and sunny!

Went for a walk in the river park again.

I spent the rest of the day working on the afghan style cot blanket that I am making for grandson, at daughter’s request. John spent time on the computer.
