Another timeless day dawns at Pambula, a name derived from the Yuin Aboriginal word meaning "Two Waters".
Pambula is a coastal village big in history, its peaceful lakes and idyllic river mouth a far cry from the hustle and bustle of development following the discovery of gold near the township in the 1880's.
