When I was in Uralla and Armidale...Good posts Jim.<br /><br />When I was in Uralla and Armidale not long ago I travelled from Newcastle via the New England Hwy. I have travelled the road to Scone many times and it is very familiar to me. Not so familiar were the tablelands and towns further north which I visit more infrequently. The tablelands are well worth the visit and Armidale in particular is a charming city.<br /><br />The real gem for me was travelling back along Thunderbolts Way through the Barrington Tops. This must surely be one of Australia's greatest drives. I don't think that any visit to New England would be complete without travelling this road. It is has the most spectacular scenery imaginable.<br /><br />Why Thunderbolts Way is not promoted is beyond me. The Barringtons are a special place. I would recommend doing the tour that I did. Start from Newcastle and travel the New England Hwy to Armidale then back via Thunderbolts Way. The further you go the more breathtaking it gets.Gregnoreply@blogger.com
