Canberra to Bonny Hills in 13 episodes

In late July I ventured north for the annual reunion with sister and brother at Bonny Hills.
The following video clips document sections of the trip, from 7:30 AM to about 3:30 PM.
Fortunately the weather was perfect for the whole 700+ kilometres.

Over the past couple of years I have travelled frequently into the Snowy Mountains as part of my job - I usually visit Cooma, Jindabyne and Guthega one day per month and then, a week or fortnight later, do an overnighter that takes in Cabramurra, Khancoban, Talbingo and Blowering Dam (near Tumut).

During these drives I occasionally mount the little Canon camcorder inside the windscreen and record some of the region, as seen from the driver's perspective.

In addition to my regular jaunts through the Snowy region I do an annual drive up to Bonny Hills (near Port Macquarie) for a get-together with my siblings. That region - bounded by the Hastings, Camden Haven and Manning rivers - was our stamping ground for 50 years, from early childhood through to senior-citizenship.
So I also do a similar thing - record with the camcorder.

All of those that I have made publicly accessible I have uploaded to You Tube so I thought it about time that I provided links from this blog.

They are in chronological order - most recent first.
Remember that you can view the clip in much larger format by clicking on the YouTube logo, bottom right corner of the screen.

Here are a few from the Snowy Mountains runs...........
