We're On Holidays. And We Have Gold Fever.

We visited Nundle this morning to check out all that was a-happening as part of their annual Go for Gold Chinese Festival. 


Once we arrived in Nundle we took the smalls straight to go gold-panning. They had a hoot sifting through the soil, and both struck it big, and got to bring their gold home. Once that was over the Doctor said he wanted to go home... Hmm. 


We meandered through the crowds, ate sausage sandwiches, went to the Nundle Woollen Mill, watched the Chinese dragon performers - which was pretty rad, went to my favourite Odgers & McClelland and stocked up on boiled lollies (I have a sweet tooth, yikes!) and my favourite beech nail brushes - random combo I know, but this is the general store - and the curation of goods is inspiring and so aesthetically pleasing! I never knew I loved brooms so much.


Ah the country air. I can not get enough. 


I definitely do not want to come home. 

Get Out Your Lederhosen

It's Blogtoberfest! Head on over to Big Cat to read all the small print, but what it means for you, dear reader - I'll be posting every day for the month of October (and today - I am going for a land-speed record with three massive posts - whoa nelly!). Unfortunately I'm not a busty blonde handing out bier, but you know, I'll try my best to enchant you with the clunky sound of some German (I'll be reaching into my Year 8 memory for that).

Ich bin ein blogger hear me roar.

Anyway, Flossy-P has created an ace button to add to your blog if you're a player.. Head on over and pick up the details and give her a high five while you're there.

I'm already onto day two of Blogtoberfest, and to celebrate, here are some pics of everyone's favourite pseudo-German (!?) the Hoff.. He's German isn't he? Well, even if he isn't, we can pretend das ist goot.
