At Machattie Park at Bathurst we found a tree fern, palm, green leafy plants in one green house and in the other we found Begonias. They were such a magical sight. They were in all colours from reds, golden yellows, deep red, white tinged pink, cream tinged pink  and oranges. Once around wasn't enough. Did a second walk to believe it was so magical and beautiful to see. Went to look for the Japenese Garden. It had one Japenese Lantern and a little greenery so wasn't real impressed. Bathurst is a big place. Has a large shopping centre. Viewed Peace Park which is a nice spot to picnic. While on Mount Panorama saw "a man in his flying machine." Left Bathurst to go to Lithgow and Katoomba. Passed Glanmire area. Saw sheep. Had a hilly climb on the mountain. Shell Roadhouse. Pine tree plantation.
