On the way to the coast there are two great little towns that we love to stop in - Bungendore and Braidwood, New South Wales. Both are smaller than Hartland. Braidwood has a wonderful bakery (that's why we always stop on our way through), and more importantly (depending on your perspective), horse racing. Saturday, February 10 was Braidwood Race Day (did I mention that horse racing is a big deal in Australia?). Everything stops on Race Day. All the girls in town don their best frocks and hats and everyone heads to the races. Here are a few of the horses warming up....
Here they are.....coming down the last stretch......
And here is the part that I found the most entertaining......
I used to like lime green....
I call these three Charlie's Angels....
And the best viewing of the day, was 10 month old James Sealey-Thompson, son of Nick and Lesley Sealey-Thompson (UK). Nick is one of Ian's classmates at Staff College.
