SHE
SAID:
The
3 of us set out for the Minnimurra Rainforest, on the Jamberoo Pass
Road today. We had about a 90 minute walk through the rainforest on
elevated walkways & crossing several suspension bridges.
Next, it was a pie stop in Robertson for lunch; a popular joint with very tasty pies.
I
zoomed out later in the day for an orchid hunt; it was a warm humid
afternoon. Happily I found 4 flowering types, though nothing new.
A
big storm came in through the evening with plenty of thunder &
lightning around for an hour or more. The wind & rain came too,
with 22mm falling. Geoff won't need to water for a while now.

HE SAID:
Our morning rainforest wander was rewarded with a very decent steak and kidney pie at Robertson on the way home.
Bowral's evening thunderstorm was only notable for Jan's reaction to it. I was very pleased to get almost an inch of rain, so that my watering duties are reduced. But Jan made several comments on how wild and lengthy the storm was. Varena and I found the storm to be a run-of-the-mill thing. I assume that Jan gets very few thunderstorms at her home in England.
