Bangalow Markets
January 28, 2008
Up with the birds this morning and off in the car. My daughter wanted to go to the Bangalow Markets which are south of the border down New South Wales way and a two hour drive away. We got onto the road at 6am and had found a good parking spot and were seated for breakfast by 8:15am.
These Markets are held in the local show grounds and the local growers, artists, performers and other odd and assorted people gather to sell their wares. In the crowds we ran into our nieghbours, who we couldn't find at Xmas. And there was so much to see. It is a shame you can't smell the smells and here the music because they all add to the experience. I took over 100 photos but here are just a few.
The crowd.

I just love lemon myrtle.
