Berry


We made a day trip to the south coast township of Berry. This involved three train connections there and three connections back. I'd forgotten how long it takes to get there from Sydney and we ended up spending six hours on trains to spend three hours in the town.

There are some scenic moments on the train journey.

We explored the streets of the town and its specialty shops.


The local pub was decorated with bicycles presumably to celebrate the 'Tour de Berry' which notices around town announced is held every July.


We also tried freshly made doughnuts from the the 'famous Berry donut van' which none of us had ever heard of previously.

  2. disco, I'm not as knowledgeable about trains as Andrew. To Kiama we were on an electric train of the type that runs on the suburban network. Between Kiama and Berry we were on a two car train that I assume was a diesel train.

    It has great windows for viewing.
