Sunday morning in Adelaide, it’s raining and pretty quiet as we set off on our road trip heading for first stop Broken Hill.
A brief pause at the pretty town of Burra for a much needed caffeine hit and then off again through countryside which has a welcome green coat. Not sure what the rain fall has been but the countryside looks good. Arriving at the Broken Hill Caravan Park is amazing, there must be at least 300 vans and most seem to be occupied by grey heads, we will have plenty of company! We settle in reasonably easily, by now it’s getting dark and time to eat when I discover that the especially prepared first night away meal is still in the freezer at home! So it’s off to the pub and a steak sandwich and glass of red - even better, no washing up. The extra we paid for an inner spring mattress means a good night’s sleep.
We leave Broken Hill on Tuesday heading for Cobar, the effect of the recent heavy rains will mean our planned route may have to change, guess that’s what this is all about.

  1. Glad you are cosy and dry and in good company. You seem to be behind, not ahead of, the rain, which is the best place to be! XXB
