Well, we're heading towards the end of this trip. It's nice to not have anything on the schedule other than arriving in Sydney by Thursday.
We didn't stick around very long in Albury. The area has quite a bit hiking trails and parks and railroad museums. Since we aren't into trains that wasn't an option to pass our time. Hiking it's completely the wrong thing to mention since it's quite warm in the southern area of Australia. Today the temperature was about 33 degrees which in Fahrenheit is like 90 something. Instead of finding places to amuse ourselves with, we decided to hit the road again.
The distance we traveled takes about 3 hours, but with our style of traveling it took more like 5 1/2 hours. Atractions along the way were kangaroos, road side stand offering cherries, more amazing landscape.
The landscape was different than any I had seen previously. We drove through more farmland and lots wheat fields. If a Lancaster County farmer would see the land he would think it's dry and barren land. Well, it may be dry, but the livestock don't look like they are experiencing anything close to famine. The grasses they graze on contain alot of protein. Nice cows our ugly cows, shorn or unshorn sheep after so long landscape is landscape and it's time to get there.
Our motel is nestled in Turner Vineyard in the town of Orange, New South Wales. We're all extremely hungry. We didn't have much of a breakfast and no lunch so we're distracting ourselves by doing all sorts of things like updating the blog. The restaurant opens at 6:30 and that's just a few minutes away so I'm out for now.
