Weekend in Laidley

Just got back from a quick 24 hour round trip to the Laidley Shire for Rhondda's wedding. It feels like we've been away for a few days we fitted so much in. Nothing too strenuous. Just browsing bric a brac shops, old pubs, local historical sights and a cemetary. The purpose of the whole sojourn was of course Rhondda and Tobin's wedding at Pepper's resort, Hiddenvale.
So we packed the kids off to mum's via nana's for a weekend of Sea World and generally being spoilt.
The wedding was lovely set in the surroundings of an old homestead and cabins with a magnificent view of the district. I'm so tired after driving many hours that I'll say the rest with photos. By the way the cemetary plot is the Cotton's where Sidney Cotton is buried (Martine's great uncle raised at Hiddenvale).
