Drive: 227km
Ride: 18.8 km; Walk: 2.2 km
After awakening at 6:15 am, we had had breakfast and were ready to be on
our way at 8:05 am. We had to have a
"dump" stop on the way out of the Showgrounds to empty the loo and
were on the road by 8:10 am.
Mornos was had just outside of Moree at the Boorooloola Rest Stop. A quick brew, some dried bananas and almonds
and we were on our way again.
Last stop for the day was in Goondiwindi. We had a choice of three van parks and chose
the one closest to the town centre so we could walk to dinner and back. We stayed at the Rivergums Caravan Park, and
although it is tiny compared to other parks, it has all the requisites; the
amenities are clean and functional and it has drive-through parks so we did not
have to un-hitch.
After a filling lunch and a rather long siesta (we had to have an extra-long
one as we are now back in QLD and have gone backward in time, but actually gained
an hour!). We set off on the bikes just after 3:30 pm and did almost 20 km
seeing some of the sights of Goondiwindi.
Neither of us realised just how big this little country town had become.
