Nov 12 Waterfall Way

It was time to start heading toward the coast and we had a beautiful sunny day to start this leg of the journey.  We decided to head east on the road know as waterfall way.

This road travels though table lands, bush and rain forest and is an area of great import to the aborigines who found water, food and medicine in abundance.

Our first stop was at Bakers Creek Falls.  After a short walk to a lookout we discovered a gorge dropping below us with a waterfall plummeting below.  

Next we stopped in at Wollomombi Falls.  These are the highest falls along waterfall way and again fell in a deep gorge.

We pressed on and eventually ended up in mountains along the Great Dividing Range.  This was a fun part of the drive as the road twisted and turned as it made its way to the coast.

We stopped at Doringo National Park and at a lookout there we could see the Pacific off in the distance.

We continued toward the coast through the rain forest, stopping once at a quirky little general store with a hippie vibe.

After a full day, we made it to the coast,  stopping briefly at South West Rocks.
