Dubbo to Coonabarabran - 11 June 2019

Well, we didn't expect to be camping in Coonabarabran tonight....parked up in one of the caravan parks with two caravans and one car - therein lies the problem.


We left Dubbo at a civilised hour, after I had been for a lovely walk through the vines.

Traffic on the Newell Highway wasn't too bad so it wasn't much later that we arrived in Gilgandra. It's a lovely RV friendly town so we stopped for morning tea and a quick trip to the supermarket. Back on the road again, we were aiming for tonight's camp in Bendemeer and lunch somewhere in between. Neill and Jude's car was not running perfectly, which was concerning as they had work done in the last week so a quick call back to the Toyota dealer who did the work told them to stop at the next Toyota dealer on our route to get it checked. Who knew that a town the size of Coonabarabran had a Toyota dealer but so they do! We had lunch while their car got looked at - and the news wasn't good. It needed urgent work so here we are. It was a pleasant afternoon sitting reading. Jude baked scones, we lit a campfire and it was a nice evening - albeit with some concerns about car repair timelines. We shall see what tomorrow brings before we make any decisions.
