Had an awesome morning exploring Cowra - gorgeous old town with loads of history. If you ever get the chance the hologram display about the Cowra breakout is really awesome. First stop was the Garrison gates which mark the original entrance to the compound. We wandered around the old prisoner of war site and visited the Australian and Japanese War cemeteries which were very moving, had a cuppa at the Japanese Gardens Cafe then headed to Hill End after a fuel stop at Bathurst.
We arrived at Hill End around 4.30pm after a slight detour when we got bamboozled at Sofala and ended up on the wrong road...... whoops .... starting to think I am NOT meant to come to Hill End! We parked at the pub and headed in - had a drink- they had meals -check - they had accommodation - check. I checked out the room it was a small pub room and the bathroom was shared but we were the only guests so that was ok.
I went for a walk and took some pics of the town and we will explore more in the morning then head back to explore Sofala and then on to Bathurst.
Prepare to be amazed!
