Riverwood Downs 2011

Before heathers return to work we planned a mini holiday at Riverwood Downs Mountain Valley Lodge, a pet friendly country retreat.

The resort is located on the banks of a mountain river in the foothills of the Barrington Tops World Heritage Wilderness and  only 2.5 hours drive north of Sydney NSW Australia.

The photos below will appear as I get the time to do post production on them and most likely in any order.

On the road to Riverwood Downs Mountain Valley Resort.

Our Cabin looks a bit rustic on the outside, but inside it has air-conditioning,  Cable TV, a fully equipped kitchen, a bathroom a master bedroom with double bed and 2 bunks.

House  in Clarence Town.

A bush walk with friends What the Duck.

Cody dived in to the river and had an impromptu swim. now waiting for a bath. :-)

Early Morning at Riverwood Downs.

Found on our Bush walk - The Agile Antechinus (Antechinus Stuartii) (A.K.A. Marsupial Mouse) is a small native carnivorous marsupial sometimes confused with the introduced House Mouse. The Agile Antechinus is nearly indistinguishable from the Brown Antechinus, but it is slightly smaller and its fur has a more greyish tinge. It feeds mostly on beetles, spiders and cockroaches, but may also devour small lizards and soft berries is This one was found hiding in a gate post bolt hole and stayed perfectly still.

Lost?

 Carsons Lookout, 920 Metres ASL, part of the Great Dividing Range, on Thunderbolts Way, a road between Walcha and Gloucester, NSW, Australia. 

A refurbished Endeavour rail service on its way to Dungog. Seen from Dungog Road.

 I looked for the platypus in the river but all I found was rabbits. :-)
