Rare Mareblu Posted November 21, 2023 #12486 Share Posted November 21, 2023 This makes my heart sing. My beloved grandfather was an Engineer in the remake of the original Hawkesbury River bridge. He loved the area so much that he and my wonderful grandmother retired to Dangar Island for the last years of their life. They could see the bridge from their waterfront home every day. Thanks for posting💜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting💜 Glad you liked the pic, memories for me to, as a kid we traveled from Sydney to the central coast for weekends a lot, over the old bridge.

Rare MicCanberra Posted November 21, 2023 #12488 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Danger island was the launching point for the bridge to bridge waterskiing race, Hawkesbury to Nepean. Went there once for the start and had cold pies for breakfast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare arxcards Posted November 21, 2023 #12489 Share Posted November 21, 2023 The number of times I have been over either bridge - but these days, I much prefer the rail bridge when heading to Sydney. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The soothing noise from the trains rumbling over the bridge lulled us to sleep as kids when we were staying with my grandparents. The currawongs and kookaburras woke us in the morning, and in summer, the shrill of cicadas during the hot days was deafening. When they stopped, the mosquitos started. Sounds of Australia, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes very fond memories, just like when driving home from central coast come over the old bridge then turn left in to to car park of the fish and chip shop that used to be there, as a kid always looked forward to that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare lyndarra Posted November 21, 2023 #12492 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Thanks. Yes, the Peats Ferry bridge I have been over many times over the years. I have often ridden over it on my bikes and sometimes stop, on many Sunday mornings, for an egg and bacon roll just up the road at the Old Road Cafe, formerly the Road Warriors Cafe. Hundreds of bikes and cars gather there on weekends for a run up the Old Pacific Highway. Now to find a pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
