Singleton to the Meadow Glen Rest Area

We were in our way at 7.40am. A little later than planned but the extra sleep was appreciated!

First stop, Dunedoo! A quick stop for an early lunch. Then Dubbo and Cobar for fuel. An unbelievable number of goats on the sides of the road. A few wild emus and Kangaroos. Between movies the girls noticed the changing colour of the Roos from grey to dark grey to red as the mountains gave way to flatter and and more open spaces.

We pulled in to the Meadow Glen Rest Area around 5pm after a little over 9 hours and 678kms from home. The rest area was very popular with about 10 other vans already pulled up. Very red and dusty but with no breeze to speak of it was a great place to stop. The boys got a fire going as the temperature dropped and the girls went hunting for more sticks to use. We roasted marshmallows after dinner and turned in early. Overall a great first day!Read more
