A day on the farm - bikes, Auntie Col, Uncle Kev, cousin Sharon, cousin David plus assorted smaller people and other family members. I enjoyed taking these pictures of the old truck, the Holden and the bike.
We overnighted at Nyngan and ate in the local RSL Club. There were galahs (the flying kind) all around Nyngan - there is plentiful grass seed and they have obviously bred up in numbers. You could never say that they are quiet birds.
From Nyngan we headed to Gundabooka National Park, 50 kilometres south of Bourke. This National Park is largely mulga and we enjoyed some lovely short walks through the landscape and met up with Michael and Marea. This is Stone Country and the Aborigines lived in this area for thousands of years. We were privileged to be able to see some of their rock art which shows them dancing and hunting.
We took a side trip on the dirt to visit the Geographical centre of NSW and have decided that we should now visit the centre of all Australian states. We have already been to the geographical centre of Tasmania so we only have 5 to go!
We headed towards Cunnamulla and then onwards to St George in Quensland. The wildlife that we have seen has been great - we have spent lots of time taking photos of birds and water - along with the very numerou emus.
More pictures to come tomorrow!!!!!!
Frames look good on the pictures. Hope that the new van isn't making you too soft!
