Queensland holidays 2011. Day two

Day two

Friday 17 june
Lightning Ridge to Injune

I have to start with Claude joke

" We were Injune in June "

We left Lightning Ridge at 10 past 8 am.
Again, we saw a lot of dead kankaroos along the road.
We saw emus and foxes too.
We stopped for diesel at Dirranbandi,
which means "chorus of frogs in the swamp at night"
 St George
Walk along the Balonne river.
They just had some flood.
 picnic lunch at E J Beardmore dam
 Then we drove to Surat for a real coffee.
and then stopped in Roma for a bit of shopping.
We were told that there was nowhere to eat out
in Injune. (We found out that the pub did a nice meal.)
 20 - 21 degres but it feel coolish.
Our cabin. Bed and kitchenette (microwave)
In Roma we bought Weight watchers meals,
tomatoes, dressing and rice puddings.
and a bottle of wine.
we were cold during the night.
The air conditioning was too noisy to sleep with it on.

On the Saturday we got a phone call from the
manager asking us if we took a blanket?
That must be why we were cold it should have
 been another blanket on the bed.
Claude was not happy.
