2023 Eastern trip. Bendigo, Shepparton, Gundagai

Peg 157

Gnaala Mia again - Quoll and Woiley

It felt so good to be back on the road. I was a little nervous as it had been 3 years since I did any serious travelling.  I found several camps across the Nullabor that I hadn't used before, and some new amenities, Loved being way out the back at Peg 157. Had a couple of days there. Also a camp only 8 km from Ceduna - but need to go in the 2nd entry apparently. It was a little tight for me!

I spent a few days at Wirrulla which has more power points now and new amenities! Then to Kimba. Once again - a huge change with a much expanded area and new amenities. Another stop at Iron Knob, then on up through Horocks Pass via a sealed but VERY humpy one-way 'shortcut' the GPS sent me on to get there!!!! Was going to camp at Burra but the town was very full, and the camp out of town is not so nice now. All fenced off,  uneven ground - and too many there, so on to Murraytown. A bigger area available to camp. So wonderful to see the autumn trees - I miss the ones we have in NZ and WA certainly doesn't grow many.

Big drive to Wirrabara for a couple of nights. Found the bakery!!!! Then to Robertstown and to Swan Reach. Now that has to be a favourite place. Right on the river, so peaceful - will definitely go back there. I took the ferry across after a few days and headed off along the high side of the river. Great views down to see where the floods have been.
