Cataract Gorge is one of those must see places...we were there when the Get Away team were filming all this majestic landscape in the pouring rain. Still, Stephen has this need to get me up on chair lifts...this one has the longest single span in the world.
We had purchased an up to the top pass for us both and just me for the downward return..this was fine till I realised that Stephen was giggling at me because it meant that I would have to come down on my own......more of that later!!
The gardens up here are stupendous and still have the feel of yesteryear, this was taken from the cafe (not bad coffee), and shows the old music pavilion, you can't see them in this picture but we found a Peacock hen (or peahen, I think they are called) with two chicks just in front of this building...really sets the scene.
Yes, this is me coming down the chair lift...luckily you can't zoom in to see the white knuckles!!!!
Stephen walked back to the base, across bridges and river to get back to the terrified me......
