Tracy and I have just arrived back from a trip up into the Blue Mountains, about an hour and half west of Sydney.
The purpose was to have a relaxed dinner at a resort hotel we often pass on our travels to visit relatives in Mudgee.
Well may I now recommend to you who may be here in NSW or may be intending to visit at some stage, please consider the Hydro Majestic Hotel in Medlow Bath in the Blue Mountains.
While one of the main facilities is hydrotherapy and spa these don't operate on the day of our visit and as we are familiar with the area - we take visitors there to Katomba, we relaxed in wonderful decor and surroundings waiting for our dinner reservation time.
The room B&B rates was beautiful.
Our real wonder and surprise came with the Casino Lounge dining room
The alcove pictured centre is identical to the one in which we sat but on the opposite wall. The colours and textures are rich and from an era long past and we had thought to make our night more special by dressing formally and it was not lost on this excellent setting.
I apologies for the quality of the photographs they are from my phone as the camera decided to play up on Tracy.
Tracy and I had three courses of culinary delights, each mouthful an explosion of tastes that made us linger over each plate to enjoy for as long as possible. Our table service was personal and engaging making the evening even more special.
We completed it with a stroll around the terrace to view the vista of stars above before returning to the main lobby and the large fireplace with deep inviting lounges and glasses of port before turning in for the night.
Some asleep faster than others (yep she really was asleep when I took this) and am I trouble for sticking it here!!!!!!
Well if you didn't quite pick it up, if you don't mind something a bit old world and special check this place out. This shaggy arsed Ambo is very pleased he did.
Second last day of holidays!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Be careful out there and I'll see you at the Big One.
