We experienced all sorts of weather during our stay in Armidale, the highlight being the rain we got on Christmas Eve and night.
After a lazy Christmas, by Boxing Day we were ready to get out for a long walk. We thought that after the rain the Dangar Falls would be gushing and so they were.
We woke this wallaby and her joey from their slumbers - they didn't seem to mind and let me get up close to take a photo.

A local beer - Dobson's New England Pale Ale had to be sampled.
Before another delicious meal
M's Moroccan lamb, A's peach and buffalo mozarella salad with pomegranate and R's flat breads
What was I doing you may ask while they were preparing this repast- trying to write a Christmas post!
Headed home the next day - with a stop half way at Gloucester for a hamburger.
For my north American readers - note the beet(root). This is the classic Australian version.
Fresh and juicy, messy to eat - but fantastic.
We had a wonderful, relaxing country Christmas - I hope you did too.
So glad to see you had such a perfect Christmas!
