Gold Rush Colony, Mogo NSW

Needed to be in Sydney on the Monday so we decided to take our time and make a long weekend of it leaving on the Friday, somehow I said “ I don't care where we stay” so ended up spending 2 nights in a town called Mogo and at a cabin in @ “The Original Gold Rush Colony”.

Mogo is a little between Batemans Bay and Moruya on the NSW South coast we arrived Friday afternoon booked in and went for a walk around the town to find a number of “crafty shops” where Linda was more than impressed with.

Up Saturday morning headed to a market in Moruya ( a tip from a local in Mogo) spent the morning walking around the market then off for breakfast in town, back to Mogo where Linda ditched me at the cabin (nana nap) to spend a few hours and more than a few dollars in the local economy (but we only brought good stuff)

A drive into Batemans bay for lunch at the “Marina” walk around town then back to Mogo for a coffee at a local cafe. Back to the “village” for a walk around the “GOLD RUSH COLONY” best described as a theme park type of thing and back to the cabin for a few drinks and watch the Wallabies get beat again!!! Made arrangements to meet up with “Bad Scott” for breakfast in Ulladulla. 

A great view to have breakfast overlooking the harbor, brilliant!!! And a good laugh.

After breakfast headed to Canberra for the Sunday night, arrive mid afternoon then did some tourist things around Canberra stopped at the Telstra tower, National War Memorial  (certainly a place all Australians need to visit), Parliament house then to the national mint only to realise Linda was looking at a week day time not weekend so we went back to the hotel ordered in room service then an early-ish night.

Monday’s drive Canberra – Goulburn –Sydney – Goulburn – Home a few Maccas stops and a big 14hrs of driving. now just looking fwd to some real  camping as the weather gets better
