Fitzroy Falls Reservoir, 9th of March 2014

This reservoir is managed by the Sydney Catchment Authority. It is a beautiful lake in the highlands and can be used for recreational purposes as for instance for sailing. On that Sunday, when we passed there, we saw in the distance quite a few sailing boats. On our way back from the Fitzroy Falls Peter  stopped the car near the lake to have a closer look.

Peter took this picture crawling up close to it. I wonder what sort of mushroom it is.

Before we drove on I took some more pictures while sitting in the car. I loved the little yellow flowers.

Maybe I should have been shooting one of the beautiful yellow flowers lying on my tummy! I am sure this would have made a better picture!

I think Peter took this picture just before we drove on to get home for a well deserved cup of tea and some delicious apricot pie which we would get in Robertson from the pie shop.

This reminds me Peter took some more pictures in Robertson Here they are:

Robertson is famous for its potatoes. This replica is to remind us of it.

From Robertson Peter drove down Macquarie Pass towards our home town of Dapto. We had had a truly lovely Sunday!
