Berridale Trip - Day 9 to Day 11

Day 9 to 11 – 21/4/2017 to 23/4/2017 – Gilgandra, Goondwindi, Home

It was a slow start to the morning. I think we were trying to deny the inevitable of starting to head for home. As we were leaving town we went for a drive through the main street of Tumut.

Day 8 – 20/4/2017 Tumut Rest Day

It was nice to have a day just sitting around camp and nothing planned. You couldn’t have ordered better weather. Here are a few photos from around camp.

Berridale Trip - Day 7

Day 7 – 19/4/2017 – Berridale to Tumut

Unfortunately, it was the day that we had to leave to start heading home . But before we did head off I had one last fly around with the drone . I was initially going to fly over to the large rock that stood out on top of the nearby ridge. I was still only new to flying the drone and getting use to controlling it. I made it to about 470m away from me and chickened out. It was still a long way over to the rock and because we were leaving this morning I couldn’t really afford to have it run out of battery and land so far away and then have to go searching for it. It will have to wait until another visit when I have a lot more experience. I am sure the rock is not going anywhere any time soon.

Very hard to see but the large rock is centre of the photo on the horizon
I later worked out that I was still about 1.75km from getting to the rock. So I will definitely have to make sure that the battery is fully charged on the next attempt!

Berridale Trip - Day 5

Day 5 – 17/4/2017 – Berridale/Cooma Day

It turned out to be a pretty cool night. It dropped to 2.5deg C! I hadn’t really noticed when I was out taking photos around the place even though I was still in a short sleeved shirt and shorts with only a vest jumper on. It was a great testament to the warming properties of the beer cloak!  The morning was also just right for a few more photos!

Berridale Trip - Day 4

Day 4 – 16/4/2017 – Forbes to Berridale

The temperature only dropped down to 7.5 overnight, which was nice and cool but not cold, yet! It was a nice change. It was going to be another big day driving but I still had some time to get a few photos of the van park and the Lachlan River before we departed.

Berridale Trip - Day 1 to Day 3

Day 1 to Day 3 – 13/4/2017 to 15/4/2017 – Bundaberg to Forbes

We decided to do a quick trip south to one of our favourite regions of Australia, the Snowy Mountains, area over the Easter break. The main purpose was to visit some family and friends that we hadn’t seen for a while. It was still Queensland school holidays and Easter is traditionally a busy period on the roads, so we decided to make a start a day earlier than Good Friday to try and avoid some of the traffic. It also allowed us to take our time packing up and locking up the house. The aim of the first day was not to do big kilometres, but to just get on the road. We didn’t end up getting away until after lunch.

We had a few options on where we thought we might like to get too. In the end, we made to the Stuart River free camp. It was a good spot as it took the pressure off getting to Goondwindi the next day as well.
