The destination for today is Pemberton, goal there (for Peter) to climb the Gloucester Tree. On the way there we passed Denmark (coffee stop) and did the Tree Top Walk (yes, even Ellen). Some shots from the drive to Denmark and then Denmark itself:
Then the Tree Top Walk:
Of course there is more to see since the TTW is in a park:
Would you be brave enough to enter:
They really are very high:
And what about this very rare specimen of a megaphone-tree?
Fairy tail tree:
Bigger than life:
On the way to Pemberton a little stop for a short rest with another nice view, and a call to find a motel room in Pemberton:
By the end of the day we arrived at the motel. After some driving around the town, we could not find any nice restaurants, so we decided to have dinner at the motel’s restaurant. When entering the restaurant we saw a real cappuccino machine, so we already planned to have one after dinner… What a disappointment, the manager (who was waiting herself this night) did not really know how to operate the machine. So we ended up with a sort of weak flat white and a cup of hot milk. At least (or of course ;-) she did not put them on the bill…..
Hi Peter and Elen.
ReplyDeleteDid you try the restaurant in the centre of Pemberton? I don't remember the name, but it was across the street the campsite. A simple but very good restaurant, serving marron and trout. BYO wine.
