We're still talking to each other!

Having talked to someone before we left who said he and his wife would last about one day travelling together, I think we're doing quite well :)


I got up early to walk a little way out of Tibooburra to get this photo at sunrise. There are piles of granite around the township and this stone was balanced on just three points



Don't quite know whether Bun wanted to fly off the edge here! I think he's planning on only having photos of the back of him appear on the blog :)


This was one of the 'much better' dirt roads that we've been on!  There had been rain in the general area in the last couple of weeks and so some of the roads were pretty bad.  There were times that we went back to about 25-30kms per hour because of ruts and corrugations.  There is also some pretty lucky wildlife out there too because we missed an emu by a tail feather and a little goat put the brakes on very quickly and just missed the side of the truck.

We went from Tibooburra to Wanaaring to Bourke to Louth to Cobar to Broken Hill and we are now in Mildura again.  We would have liked to go to Ivanhoe or White Cliffs or Tilpa but roads have been closed and we figured we had given the caravan a bit of a workout already.  It doesn't look so clean anymore :)

We will stay in Mildura until Tuesday when the truck has it's first service then we will head home.



Saw this sign in the pub at Pooncarie and thought it was a good one for the blog!
