21st January
We left home today after busily packing the van with goodies for our short trip, but I still managed to forget to complete emptying the fridge. Fortunately Maree finished the job and at the same time scored some really nice potato salad. We arrived at Swan Hill at about 4pm, had tea and settled in for the night which was fairly cool.

Explored the shops and found an Aldi's I was in heaven. I then read for most of the day in between drinking and eating.
23rd January
We slept really well, and turned the air con on. It was going to be a very hot day. After going to Bunnings and getting something Ross needed to fix the breakaway on the van we went back to the park - The Big 4 Riverside Tourist Park, which by the way is spotless and we changed into bathers and jumped in the pool as it was 39c.
Tomorrow we move on to Wentworth to join the Silver City Highway to make our way to Broken Hill, although we are not staying in the town, but at a free camp Popiltah rest area which is beside a lake which may or may not have water in it. It does have plenty of shade, toilets and picnic area and sounds quite nice.
After that we will take the Barrier Highway bypassing Wilcannia and staying at The Warrawong Caravan Park, 3km past Wilcannia, which has very good reviews..If it's as good as the reviews we might stay a couple of days.
I'll get back to you.in a few days unless there is something interesting to report.
