π¦πΊ Albury Half-Day Diary: Mist, Sunshine & Vintage Streets π«οΈβ¨
Perched on the NSW-VIC border (3.5hrs from Melbourne), this highway pitstop charmed us with its slow-motion magic. Perfect for road-trippers needing a breather! π Morning Wonders π Mungabareena Reserve Dawn fishing π£ (failed gloriously) + misty sunrise. Pelicans laughed at my empty bucket π. π Albury Botanic Gardens June autumn leftovers π + a 1850s sundial still telling time. π West Albury Wetlands Glassy waters, drought-exposed branches... and still no pelicans. ποΈ Afternoon Stroll π Albury Citywalk European-era buildings + surprise QEII Square festival (live music, food stalls!). Felt like stumbling into a sunlit postcard. π The Old Bookham Church (en route to Canberra) Golden-hour gum trees + a 19th-century stone church doubling as a hotel! π½οΈ Fuel Stops π Thai Lotus π₯ Prawn Satay, Pumpkin Curry, Pad Thaiβall flavor bombs. π Mr. Benedict π Chicken & Waffle = worth the brunch queue! #Albury #RoadTripVibes #HiddenAustralia #SlowTravel #Sunseekers βοΈπ
