Seeya next time Lightning Ridge!

Our first proper pack up morning today. Another really good sleep for everyone, even with the usual through the night feeds. Poor pup, he always hates pack up day, I wandered around with him and Max while Ben folded the camper down and did some of the bigger bits.
A quick fuel stop before heading to Dirranbandi. We had the option to do the slightly bigger loop via Thallon and Nindigully pub that we were considering. We stopped through on our way to the Cape in 2022, but decided since we're all still a bit crook and since we've been semi recently, we'd continue on to Saint George via the quickee route. The NSW border signs really need some work, they're so boring and generic, the QLD one at least had some pictures on it. After crossing the border we went through Hebel, very cute little town, the pub is well known apparently, even on the drive past you could tell it had a lot of character. Max has also figured out how to get his dozz into his mouth which is super handy and helps him fall asleep. We had a rest stop at Dirranbandi, worked out well as Max was starting to stir. It's a lovely spot, lots of sculptures and a nice bakery where we grabbed a feed. Took some time stretching our legs, feeding and playing with Max, and battling Puppy to do a wee with no luck. Saint George is only an hour away and we waited until Max's next nap time to keep moving.Les mer
