We have left Wilcannia and arrived at Menindee, it is still cold so we are in a friendly motel for the night. This super  cold weather is really playing havoc with the plans, tonight we would have been out in the scrub in Kinchega National Park under the stars again and just loving it. In leaving Wilcannia we farewelled Wayne and the boys on the road as we left town. What a great time of remembering the old days out west!

The drive down the river was uneventful, plenty of sheep and cattle, a few kangaroos but no goats! Lots of water and some great views of the Menindee lakes brimful of water after the recent floods.

Had dinner in one of the local hotels and guess what… Wills was there at the bar, Burke was at the other end looking for a drink. Couldn’t see Kate anywhere though. It was  a busy town, because they were both back at the  motel……….The Burke & Wills , Menindee. There you are………. a conundrum…….and no Kate!

Allthego tomorrow in Menindee.
