Rainbow Connection sewing and Day 4 was mostly driving

The past couple of days I have been sewing for the Rainbow Connection Group. My yellow strip is done, and red, purple, green, orange, and blue are making some progress. I am hopeful to finish soon and send them off to B to join their friends.

Day 4 of our trip:

We left Bateman’s Bay in the morning headed for Forbes.  We saw our first kangaroos today. You Aussie's would have got quite a laugh watching us scramble for our cameras. SUPER EXCITING for us!

We stopped in Canberra for a look. The city was too big and too busy for us. We made some very funny memories at a totem pole (my description)at this place. The totem pole was rated "R"; hence, Ev is covering it up. 

We also enjoyed seeing both the old and new Parliament buildings. I immediately recognized seeing the open space and flags on an episode of The Amazing Race.

I wish we would have gone to the war memorial and quilt shops, but we headed down the road.

Next stop was Cowra and the tower art.

Lori risked her life to get those close photos. A sign on the walkway warned us of snakes. Lori walked through the grasses to get the photos while we watched and prayed for her life. No way were we going over there!

I took these two photos of the scenery.

Here was my distance/zoomed photo. I am certain there were slithering critters hiding out there.

We found a large cactus in our travels. We also needed to stretch our legs for a bit. I really do love cactus.

I really do have sewing to share once I finish blogging the trip. I am getting closer.
