To Wagga Wagga on the Murrumbidgee

Once we knew we were going to Melbourne we decided that this little trip would also be an excellent opportunity to see Graham’s older sister Daphne. We booked an excellent motel we had stayed in on previous visits and a table for three at the wonderful Magpie’s Nest restaurant.

The drive from Jerilderie takes on a surreal flatness and the eye plays tricks. It’s mesmerising. The towns along this stretch of the highway make an effort to attract the eye at least and I thought I was seeing things at Brookong but no, there were tin sheep, tin horses and so on for some distance out of town.

We had a beautiful visit with Daphne and the meal at the restaurant thoroughly enjoyed by all of us. It was great to catch up.Leggi altro
