Mudgee to Bathurst - Tuesday 13 September

The next morning we decided to head to Bathurst to catch up with Sr patricia at Rahamim (more later) and along the way stopped at Sofala for lunch.

Sofala is another place that Julie had visited many years ago.

It is nestled in a valley half way between Mudgee and Bathurst and has a large proportion of old houses. Many of them are in the process of being renovated.






We found two disappointments at Sofala.

One was the number of hoauses that were not consistent with the "theme" of the village.

The other struck us as we sat at the old cafe having lunch, a really good hamburger. The local community hall, straight across the road, had been revamped - in Colorbond! Somehow it did not gel with the feel of the village.

After lunch we headed off towards Bathurst, passing through Wattle Flat and negotiating lots of hilly winding roads.

Boy - it was good to finally arrive at Bathurst!

Cheers
Michael & Julie
