Dangar Falls is located just outside of the town of Dorrigo, which is between Coffs Harbour and Armidale in northern NSW. It is part of the area known as Waterfall Way, which as indicated by its name, has many spectacular waterfalls on display. Because we were popping in for an afternoon, we only stopped atContinue reading “Dangar Falls”

Gingerbread Creations
One of my fondest memories of Christmas time growing up is that we would often make and decorate gingerbread houses together. We would generally make 3 or 4 houses and then give them to other families to enjoy. In the last few years we have revisited this, but in a more creative way. Now thatContinue reading “Gingerbread Creations”
Paperbark Forest Boardwalk, Agnes Water
I have been a busy little beaver in the past few weeks, so apologies for missing my post last week – I was taking some time out to enjoy a well-earned rest before starting work again. But during my holiday I went all over, from Victoria to Queensland and then back to NSW, including aContinue reading “Paperbark Forest Boardwalk, Agnes Water”
Arthur’s Seat
Following on from my post last week, Arthur’s Seat is another place that I revisited recently after spending many hours there growing up. It is a lovely area that has so much to offer, from beautiful gardens and lovely walks to gondola rides (or a chairlift as it was when I was growing up). ItContinue reading “Arthur’s Seat”
Cape Schanck Rock Pools
In my previous post I mentioned that I have been spending time with my family and going adventuring with them. So in the coming weeks I thought I would share some of my experiences of our adventures with you. I spent some of my childhood years growing up on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria. AndContinue reading “Cape Schanck Rock Pools”
Christmas 2021
Today’s post is going to be a short one! I just wanted to check in to say ‘hi’ and ‘Merry Christmas!’ For many of us Christmas is a busy time of year (it certainly has been for me this year!). I know that I can tend to get caught up in the many traditions andContinue reading “Christmas 2021”
Venturing Out Again
It has been a long six months of lockdowns and restrictions in Sydney, but things are starting to change! Slowly, everything is opening back up, which also means that exploring and adventuring are an option again. And I am SO excited! For the first time since I started my blog, I am actually able toContinue reading “Venturing Out Again”
Cubby Houses
I grew up with two older brothers and one younger one and this means that as many boys tend to when they are growing up, they were very interested in being creative and adventurous. All of my brothers were very hands on in their creativity, building many sling shots, bows and arrows and swords. AndContinue reading “Cubby Houses”
Breakfast at the Top of the Yellow Arrow
I have written in previous posts about my experience walking the Green Arrow track in Cairns, so today we are moving on to the Yellow Arrow track! This walk is located in the Mt Whitfield Conservational Park and is 1.9km long with a steady uphill climb. When I lived in the area I had seenContinue reading “Breakfast at the Top of the Yellow Arrow”
Shades of Green
“What’s your favourite colour?” When I was growing up, my answer to this question changed constantly. It would depend on many different things such as how I was feeling at the time, who was around me and what colours they liked, and what colours I could see at that specific moment. But for many yearsContinue reading “Shades of Green”
