Yesterday we left Nindigully Pub rather weary after last call for drinks was at 1.40am and music being turned off at 2a.m., not that we were partying but trying to get some sleep. We set off in fine sunny weather but this changed as we traveled towards St George with the occasional light shower of rain and of course cold temperatures. We only refueled at St George as we were there last year and continued on to Meandarra, arriving about 2 o'clock at a free camp and were promptly greeted by Tom who gave us a low down on the camp and then asked us what type of music we like and offered us a CD with 339 mp3 filed on it of easy listening songs. After a late lunch we unloaded the bikes and had a ride around town and along a walking track beside the river and back to the van for a quick sit down in the sun. Today before leaving we enjoyed a visit to the Anzac Military Museum. It has a fantastic display for a small town and we were very impressed, it even has a Canberra Bomber supported in the middle of the building along with a Grant Tank weighting 23 tons, It has a lot more memorabilia and they have plans to add more as they are receiving more donations.
We back tracked to Surat and head North to Roma where we stopped for lunch and fuel and then to Injune for tonight's stop over. Along the roadside you often come across self seeded cotton bushes. We also saw two wild pigs with about ten little piglets racing off into the bush as we approached.
(P.S.) 'Him' asked 'Err' if she would like to drive today and 'Err' promptly climbed into the drivers seat and took off driving quiet well until 'Err' decided to take a
power nap at
100klm hour towing a
2ton van! 'Him' realising that the car was going straight ahead instead of going around a bend shouted out
'what are you DOING?', or words to that effect, 'Err' snapped into action and resumed steering. Needless to say that 'Him' is now doing the driving.
