Dag 1
One Zeus to another…
7 april 2023, Australië ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
Pants and cardies
Tops and undies
Outfits i’ll need for the weeks
But sadly,
I can’t pack the dog

Documents stowed
The weight underload
Handbag filled to the top
But no,
I can’t pack the dog.

Everything managed to fit
Passport ready, can’t forget it
Wondering what I’ll see and who I’ll meet
If only
I could pack the dogMeer informatie

Dag 4
Time to move
25 juli 2023, Australië ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Woke up with a bit of a fever and boogers, so the hangover yesterday has turned into a cold, funnn.
We got ourselves organised and packed up before heading in town for a feed and another wander. Mark suggested we pop into the winery he works at occasionally on the way to our next site. We stopped at Burrendulla, Mark wasn't working but the gentleman there was lovely. I had a tasting, bought a bottle and kept moving.
We're staying at Cudgegong River for a night, so we stopped off and went for a walk along the damn, enjoying the view. It was a bit hot though so Ben gave Pup a lift back to the car.
What a bloody beautiful campsite! Right on the water, not a heap of shade though so although I'd say it's very popular in Spring/summer for fishing and watersports, it'd be super hot too. We set up and just enjoyed the space. Definitely coming back here some time.Meer informatie

Mudgee Wine Tour
23 juli 2023, Australië ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
We had a wine tour booked in today with Mark. We found him on instagram, he lives in the area and this is his 'retirement job'.
It was a big, lovely day! Pup was so good, he even went for a little wander with Mark.

Dag 3
Not feeling too flash
24 juli 2023, Australië ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
We woke up not feeling to flash, particularly myself. We'd already planned a cruisy day just in case.
We headed into the main street to grab a feed and have a bit of a shop. Lots of lovely cafes and pubs around. We had bacon and egg rolls to fuel us up to survive the day.
After a feed and a nice walk around the sculpture garden, we headed back to the camper for a nap.
Not much else today, just cruised about, it was nice.Meer informatie

Dag 1
A test run in the camper
22 juli 2023, Australië ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C
Ben had footy this morning, so we didn't set off until late. Google maps sent us through Bylong as it was the 'quicker route', rather than via Merriwa. Well it was a good test for the camper since the roads were so bloody windy and it was getting dark. Pup was pretty unsettled on the way out, we haven't done a big drive with him for a bit.
It was dark and windy when we arrived at the Big4, so we decided against setting up the annex, just the camper. Ben ducked out to get KFC for dinner as we just didn't feel like battling the wind.
Bed time not long later, Pup decided he has to be right with us, on our bed instead of his queen option at the end of the camper.Meer informatie

Dag 12
Back into Queensland
25 juli 2022, Australië ⋅ ⛅ 5 °C
Unfortunately we have to get home today and can't stay and look around Mudgee or take our time getting back.

So got up early again and headed off, there was a light frost all over the 79 and trailer. The morning was misty and after leaving the motel at 6am and we were still driving through the mist scouring the roads for wildlife till about 10am!

There are some really beautiful towns, in northern NSW and it would have been nice to stop and explore Gulgong, but not this time. Was also hard to drive through Coonabarabran without heading out to the Warrumbungles National Park! But we refrained and continued north. The roads are terrible they really need some attention!

We arrived in Goondiwindi at lunchtime and had to get out of our puffer jackets and Ugg boots as soon as we got out of the car! It was 15 degrees warmer than we had been in for the last week and a half! You could tell we were back in Queensland 😄

Now for the last stretch, Google says 4.5 hours but sure it will feel much longer than that!Meer informatie

Reiziger A lot of concentration watching out for wildlife on the roads for hours.

Mudgee
25 september 2020, Australië ⋅ 🌧 12 °C
The massive storm front was still upon us when we reached Mudgee, a region known for its good wine... so we stopped at Blacklea winery and were ‘welcomed’ by an old grumpy owner who was tired of answering questions and was hovering over the bar making us very uncomfortable, so we left his establishment in a rush! Unfortunately we were not in better luck with the next two wineries we had planned to go as they were booked out.

We headed to Mudgee town as a massive storm was looming upon us, so we went on a pub crawl at: Mudgee brewery (grear red ale, which we got a travel size Growler, known as squiller), Woolpack hotel (nice live music), paragon hotel (cheap pizzas, average), We ended up sleeping in the parking lot in the middle of the town)...

Next morning, although 4°, the sun was out and we got better luck with the places we visited:
1. Gulgong old mining town (average - too many cars to get a good pic of the old buildings)
2. Bakery - Mudgee Bakery - average and commercialised. Looks like they extended the cafe and lost its charm)
3. Cheesery - Mudgee Cheesery yum yum
4. Honeyree - Honey Haven Mudgee - no need to stop there just drive past, but they did a nice coffee
5. Winery - Thistle Hill - Bought 12 bottles of 2016 shiraz at Thistle Hill Winery (We still haven't figured out where to put all this wine in the van...)
6. Walk to The Drip Gorge (also know as the great dripping wall) in the Goulburn River National Park

All in all we weren’t prepared for a weekend in Mudgee - everything booked out - so lesson learned to be more prepared !!Meer informatie

Mudgee overnight from Albury.
28 januari 2022, Australië ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
After leaving Melbourne on the 27th Jan 2022 we chased to stay ahead of the storms and the low coming across from South Australia into Victoria and southern NSW. We made it to Albury on tbe 27th but headed off early which allowed us to mostly avoid the motorways and enjoy some wonderful countryside views.

A quick stop in Wattle Flat to put our wets back on, we pressed through the rain showers to make it to Mudgee.

What a great town. It's seemed a bit flashy for a county NSW town. And the real-estate prices were off the charts crazy. But then we realised it's only 4hrs from Sydney and there's a bunch of good to mis-managed wineries around the penny dropped this town was Sydney's well-to-do's country retreat. What's better than inviting friends up to your winery?

Still, our stay at a local pub benefitted greatly as everything was clean, well managed and very comfy.Meer informatie
