Rods Trip

About 20 km North of Parkes is the Parkes Radio Telescope, affectionately known as The Dish. Very fascinating and well worth stopping to look around. Inside the discovery centre is all the information about the complex and all the roles it has had, and still has, over the years. When I got to Cowra, The Visitor Centre has a display about the breakout from the POW camp, later I went for a ride out for a look. Most of it now is used for farming but some of the remains of the buildings can be seen.
