    Richmond

    May 10, 2022 in Australia ⋅ 🌧 20 °C

    After a long days drive, we arrived at our caravan park at Richmond to ride out the forecast flooding rain event. We decided to stay at the caravan park as opposed to the free camp, as it has bitumen and concrete sites, power/water and amenities whilst we are hunkered down. The park is adjacent to a man made lake with walking paths, gardens, lights and BBQ areas everywhere...a great place to ride out the weather.

    Kronosaurus Korner was great...a lot better than Hughenden, and contained heaps of full skeletons and fossils of mainly sea based dinosaurs. This region was once covered by a huge inland sea, and there seems to be heaps of fossils being uncovered quite regularly.

    The rain event has started and we're waiting it out and hoping we don't get flooded in as the roads are quite susceptible to flooding.

    We are booked in to a farmstay at Winton on Friday, and have paid for 2 dinosaur tours on Saturday and Sunday, so are hoping we are able to get through...
