    Drive to Mildura - our last destination!

    June 12, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

    It was so cold overnight in Wagga Wagga (many crows). We got up quite early and left for a long drive over the flat Hay Plain. We did see many cotton farms which we consider very wasteful of our precious water and they seemed to be very wealthy properties & businesses. Coffee at Hay which brought back some bad 'hot' memories but nowadays it looked much better. In the end, we had lunch in the car of fruit, dry biscuits, etc, and ultimately arrived in Mildura. Our Air Bnb at Walnut Court is absolutely gorgeous and Helen, the host, is lovely. Tonight we walked down to a restaurant called Mr. BunMi - a Vietnamese restaurant owned by local entrepreneur Sandy - and we had a very delicious meal. It was full of many Vietnamese people and locals but it was a very friendly restaurant and they welcomed us with a delicious, free pannacotta. Great night - good to walk back after this big meal and our home is lovely.Read more
