Queensland Holidays 2011
Day one
Home to Lightning Ridge 749km
We left home at 5.25 AM.
We left under the rain and it poured till we stopped for
a coffee at lighgow. From then on the sun was with us.
At Mudgee we had to removed our jumpers. 21 degres.
Lunch at gilganda
I drove to Coonamble. First time I drove on 6 th gear.
I had to go at 140km/h to overtake a truck.
Coonamble, stopped for coffee and a walk.
Walgett stopped to have a walk.
Outside Walgett, Claude was stopped to be breath tested.
We did 510km on 1/2 tank of diesel, very flat country.
We arrived at 4pm at Lightening Ridge Outback Resort.
It was not what I had expected of a RESORT.
It was galvanised iron. But still it had its charm.
on the web it said "cabin"......
Inside the cabin was cosy and clean.
We had everything we needed.
We went for a walk around town
and a glass of wine at the pub.
