Once again we had a bit of a sleep in and found that a cool breeze had in fact sprung up, so hopefully the temperatures through the day would be cooler. It ended up being about 10 deg cooler for most of the day. The sky also became much hazier, presumably from the dust whipped up by the breeze. During morning tea around the fire we decided to go for a bit of a drive down to Hungerford. We first tried what looked like a back track on the map but it appeared to end up in private property so we came back to the main Eulo-Hungerfordrd road and headed south.
We stopped off at the Woolstores to have a look at the old buildings and had a cruise around the other camp site at Ourimperee Waterhole, which looked pretty nice. They had cold showers and once again there was not many campers.
Then it was onward to Hungerford where we ended up having quite a nice lunch at the pub. The road leading south across the border to Mexico had a large gate to keep the southerners out. We lined the cars up for a photo and then headed back to camp for a snooze and a relax around the tent.
Unfortunately the mozzies seem to be getting worse. More DEET needed. Wayne cooked up the rest of the yabbies and we had almost a complete meal from them. A bit more cheese and crackers and I didn't even cook up anything for dinner. Another few pleasant drinks around the fire before bed and the sad thought that we would be packing up in the morning.
