Muddy water, red dirt

Captains M and M had a great time on the PS Melbourne, Murray
River, Mildura




 Then we went to Orange World. Not as p***sweak world as you might expect.
 Entering red dirt world, outside Broken Hill.
Studiously doing their journal entries. Wonder how long it will last?

Day 1

Canberra - Hay

We can't quite believe that we've actually left, 8 weeks stretching ahead of us. The Pack wasn't too stressful, we haven't discovered anything left behind just yet. In Hay tonight, heading to Mildura tomorrow for a visit to Stephano de Pieri's restaurant and maybe a paddlesteamer trip on the Murray (weather dependent - it rained a lot today).
The Hay plains
Kippin'

The big rig.
