The Real Outback?

The problem with travelling with a dog you aren't welcome in National Parks. Would of liked to stop at Gundabooka National Park but alas no dog permitted.  Stopped for a break in Burke but decided not to stay as it had that look about it like pay day, pension day.

On to the Barringun Hotel  right on the border with Qld. We had a most interesting talk with the publican. She has out lived her husband and was still operating the licence after many years. She had come from Wagga and we talked about all sorts of things, sharp as a tack. Nice old lady. Set up camp at Tinnenburra on the creek.

Anzac Day at Cunnamulla. Charleville for a couple of nights in the CP doing tourist stuff like bike riding. Got into it with a camp oven dinner put on by the hosts, nice. Met other travellers, Gerry and Bruce and enjoyed their company. Met up with them again in Blackall. Heating up out here, nice.

Gateway to the real outback?

The smallest bar I've been in.
