Mike’s gone country to a Merino sheep and Angus cattle farm near Armidale in New England – but it should really be called ‘New Scotland’ as there are some Highland Coos too!

Mike gets down and dirty when he goes dirt bike riding near Lake Macquarie in the Watagan Mountains.

Plus, Lea discovers a beautiful collection of caves on the edge of the Snowy Mountains – not as famous as the Jenolan Caves, but just as breathtaking.

Anthony scales to new heights on the high ropes course at York Fairmont Resort in the Blue Mountains.

And on the eve of Father’s Day, Jason checks out a couple of restaurants that offer great beer and beaut grub – enough to keep any dad happy.
