  Whilst in Parkes we spent time at the CSIRO Observatory using this as a chance to do a little homeschooling learning.  With a 3D Theatre, Audio Visual Theatre, Cafe and lots of things to see we sure learnt a lot. The giant 64 metre "dish" operates 24 hours a day and is one of the most well known radio telescopes in the world.

Nimbin

  Nimbin was a town I have been waiting to visit for some time and it surely did not disappoint. Colour, music, vibrance and a world of peace and unity can all be found at Nimbin. We had an amazing day there walking the streets and shopping. With a large aray of shops selling everything that is different we found exactly what we wanted plus a lot of stuff we really didn't need.

  With cannabis been widely used and sold in public within Nimbin a postcard put out by Nimbin Health and Medical Research Council can be found in every shop throughout town. This postcard ( first pictured) provide 11 guidelines on the safe use of canabis.

   Our motto: life is a natural high who needs drugs.


Our positive message:

" How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world" Anne Frank.


  

The Channon NSW

  A sleepy little village with a lot of character, a sentence that sit's nicely with The Channon.  Situated between Lismore and Nimbin we visit The Channon when it was mentioned to myself by my Auntie who had photo's of the town and a friend from when she was a teenage. Our visit enabled us to take a look at the town as it is today and compare it to the town it was.

   The Channon is renown for it's amazing markets which unfortunately were not on the day we visited.
