20 July - Bush camp just South of Tambo to Copper City Motel, Cobar.

Not a super fast start, cooked breaky and a bit of a clean up saw us packed up and on the road by 8.45 

We have clocked up just over 800kms today - hence the motel at the other end. Only stops were for fuel and lunch at Cunnamulla- which ended up being just over an hour. 

Nothing of note to discuss, we both drove. I got some blog uploaded this morning and sorted some photos, its a slow job with such poor phone service and therefore internet. Perhaps tomorrow. 

We are currently travelling between Bourke and Cobar keeping eyes peeled for critters, it's the worst time of the day. 

We have seen lots of roadkill - mainly roos, but also emus, cows and pigs. Lots of crows and a few hawks feasting on them too. We have also seen lots of emus and roos alive and healthy, we are also back into goat country during the day. 

We crossed the border from QLD to NSW, temp are back into high teens - warm in the car but really cool morning and evening. 

Another cool sunset along the way. The clouds on both sides of the road were changing colours pinks and purples and blues, some bits looked like a bruise colouring up. 

Sunset colours, looking left.

and looking right

and to the right a little further on. I couldn't actually see the sun, must have been behind us.

Will be nice to get a shower again tonight and that's the end of the tent for another little while. Should be home to Dad's tomorrow night, unpack Saturday morning and then head for Moe Saturday arvo - all going well. 

Hot chook and salads from IGA for tea. Some blogging and now bedtime.
