The birds were chortling merrily as we left Woolgoolga this morning.
The
town is dominated by a stunning white and gold Sikh temple complete
with statues of horse mounted deities at the entrance. When we arrived
yesterday, there were people milling everywhere, dressed in their
colourful traditional finery.
Today, back on the highway, the swampy roadside ditches were alive with masses of amorous frogs calling loudly and incessantly.
The
roller coaster road is subject to flooding in the valleys as indicated
by 2 metre measuring sticks. No wonder so many towns are built on hills.
We
arrived in Grafton at 12.30pm and after a visit to the 'i' centre,
decided to stay at the nearest motel. We are close to a supermarket and
perfectly positioned for rejoining the Pacific Highway in the morning.
Did 55kms today.
