FRIDAY 13TH MARCH 2009 – PARKES TO MILDURA – DAY 5
The weather has turned nasty and as we leave the caravan park the owner is ecstatic that they have had 19mls of rain overnight. Just need another couple of days of that fall and it will make a real difference out here.
We have a very long day of driving today as we pass Forbes, West Wyalong and head onto Mildura.
Jan and Alan phone us to say they are staying at the Bugora Caravan Park, right on the river at Mildura. We stayed in Mildura back in 2005 with our friends from Adelaide, Helen and David. The Caravan park then was just out of Mildura, on the Murray River at Gol Gol. It was a bit out of town and not as easy to ride bikes from so Jan and Alan were keen to stay at the Bugora.
Jan offers to do dinner as we would be arriving late so I happily agree and after settling into our spot, and unhooking, before long we are enjoying a glass of lovely cold wine sitting on the banks of the Murray. This feels like we are on holidays now!!!
