Ric's trip

Postby Ric » Mon Oct 19, 2009 7:57 pm

Day 1 of our two week cruise up to Broken Hill, across to Dubbo, and back home around Melbourne Cup day.

Headed off towards Ballarat, but swung north through Creswick and Clunes (coffee & cake in Clunes), Maryborough and Avoca (light lunch at a winery near Avoca), then St Arnaud (useless tourist information, couldn't tell us how to get to the two things that looked worth going to see), then on to Donald.

Ahhh watch out for a crazy bitch driving a black fake Evo :lol: That would be my sister (and people that have never been to donald....YES it IS that small that Ric will probably see her multiple times on his 1 night stay :lol: )

So you'll be heading through Mildura very soon yes?

Yep, we'll be staying in Mildura tomorrow night. My wife is determined to call into Orange World to get some more orange blossom honey, coz she still remembers some we bought there about 16 years ago :)
We were going to stay in St Arnaud tonight, but I'm glad we decided to keep going ;)

Nah mate was heading back from the supermarket in Red Cliffs. But i did see that grey Lib you speak of go past a little after i pulled up at work...so I must have only JUST missed you! That grey lib drives past all the time...i think the girl must be a rep or something because shes constantly driving around :shock: Shes not very friendly either :x
