A long day in the car

After fueling up, we started the day with a 3 hour stint to Wilcannia. We saw a few emus and their chicks, and 90km of goats! So bloody many! Not a lot to report, I read for a bit, resettled the boy a thousand times and we listened to Spotify. We pulled up at a rest stop in Wilcannia and ordered a classic burger and steak burger to share. It was so good to get out of the car and stretch our legs. We were heading to Menindee today.. except both roads from Wilcannia were closed, not sure why due to the lack of service, so we headed to Broken Hill to see if there was another way in. There was, but damn it's been a long day in the car. Another hour and a bit to Menindee, we headed straight for the servo to top up the fuel and grab a map from the info centre. We drove along weir road for a bit, there are a heap of free campsites listed on wiki camps here. There wasn't a lot of shade and we couldn't properly see the access to each site and didn't want to risk getting stuck with the camper since it was 5pm already. We kept going and came across Copi Hollow. Ben went and spoke with the caretaker and he directed us to a spot on the water. We set up, went for a quick walk and settled in. Pup settled and slept really well in the car today, but still wasn't interested in laying in his bed on the ground like some peasant. Just the usual evening activities, dinner, music and relaxing before bed.Read more
