Fagan Park… Oh how we love it there!

Fagan Park is situated in a lovely little village called Galston. We have been here on another occasion and enjoyed it thoroughly. On Saturday we were here for a family picnic to celebrate my Dad’s 70th birthday. After lunch we trekked around the beautiful park and I came up with these goodies. Enjoy!

Auburn – A stroll around the Botanical Gardens

We have visited this place before, but only went into the Japanese Garden on that day. This week we meandered along the Duck River, on the grounds of the Peacock Gallery and Arts Studio and through the Auburn Aviary. It was quite an unexpected treat for the eye and other senses. Quite lovely indeed…

We found yet another hidden gem! This time we head to Rouse Hill Regional Park, where we let a path takes us to beauty and beyond…
