Day 49 - Home of the Golden Guitar.
We left Armidale early and the road south, again raining on and off until we reached Tamworth. We travelled only a short distance today through Uralla and Bendemere before reaching Tamworth.
We were relieved to see the Peel River was running well but far from flooding.
Now we all know Tamworth is the home of Country Music but I must say it is also the home of a million nasty bats!! It also has the most beautiful green spaces and parks well equipped the picnic areas, duck ponds, places to eat and lots of space for kids to play.
Of course we visited the Golden Guitar, the Oxley Lookout, took a trip out the Nundle where I got to go to the woollen mill and buy some beautiful wool and George got to experience the ale at the Nundle pub.
We took a look at the dam and beautiful countryside around Tamworth. We have stayed in a caravan park right in town which has been really convenient and offered seniors discount.
One thing for sure, we are getting closer to home.
