Our journey took us back along the ‘undulating’ road 😳 then onto the Sturt Hwy to Narrandera

Why Narrandera?

Narrandera Rodeo is on this weekend and as we’ve never been to one we thought we’d go

We’re camped next to Lincoln’s Oakbank Brewery building, a 90-foot red brick tower on the Murrumbidgee River, at its height in 1921 it produced 20,000 gallons of stout, 10,000 bottles of beer and 15,000 bottles of cordial daily, now it forms part of a private dwelling

Once set up we headed into town for the tourist information ℹ️ and the Tiger Moth Memorial, the Destination and Discovery Hub to try our skills on their big playable guitar - built to promote local country music, and find the Hankinson Memorial Fountain, one of only two ceramic fountains created by Royal Doulton known to exist- the other being in India.

We needed to use the last dregs of the gas so dinner was Wagyu burgers on the Webber 🍔
Had planned chippetts, but found the potatoes had gone off - good job we don’t have smell-o-vision ‘cause that smell was putrid- yuk, joys of living in a van 😜

Ended the evening with Friday night cocktails 🍹

There’s def some weird creepy crawlies about here 🕷️🪲Read more
