Went on a nostalgic trip to our land in the Blue Mountains..... slow trip up as there was a dreadful accident on the M4. So off we went to Windsor, Richmond (twice as we took a wrong turn) Bells line of road and then into Blackheath. Fell into all our old routines, cappuccinos from the deli, sourdough bread from bakery, fresh salad, cheeses and meats and then down to Dawson's Rock for a picnic lunch.
Always a bit heart wrenching when we walk onto "our" land. But surprise, surprise they have started clearing the land ready to build! They will get spectacular views. New road put in and trees cut to be used in the building. Had to smile ruefully when we saw the old red BBQ gleaming there among the remnants of the burnt out caravan.
Feeling a bit sad we headed off to the Blue Mountains Blues festival but not really in the mood any more and the $95 entrance fee put us off a bit.
