I went to Nimbin yesterday. The place has a reputation, with its Hemp Embassy, Mardi Grass Festival and Alternative Lifestylers, but as one chap told me, people live normal everyday lives there, and the people I met are spreading the ''good news" and supporting and comforting one another. One of my close friends was leading worship at the little church and invited me along. I was able to purchase notecards of the church (above).
The pic of Nimbin Rocks is from a previous trip there, as we didn't stop for photos. It was surprisingly misty, along the road yesterday, this photo taken on a rainy day in June (Winter for us).
We had a good cup of coffee at the Rainbow Cafe
Nimbin is a tourist destination now, after its start in the counter hippy culture with the Aquarious Festival back in the 70s. "Thousands of colourful young people, mostly students, flocked to Nimbin, and stayed!"
It was lovely to have a day out with my friend, as she is very busy too, with her group The Messengers, and it is hard to find time to catch up.
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you (Matthew 7:12)
PS: I have not linked with others for the past few days, or until the end of this week, as we have two concerts tomorrow as they like to celebrate Valentines Day in the Homes, and another on Thursday. Will be back to normal later in the week! The links to interesting blog parties are in the right hand column, (scroll down) if you have a few moments to spare and would like to see some beautiful photos.
