We didn’t do much at all today, just a relaxing day. In the afternoon we went for a drive and saw a cotton ginn. There were big rolls of cotton wrapped in yellow plastic. Later on, in the camp oven, we cooked cheese and bacon damper, savoury scones, pineapple cake, and some lamb stew! It was really fun and tasty! While the stew was cooking we went for a walk across the bridge. The bridge used to be part of the main road, but now it is to weak to hold cars. We saw a female darter. Because there was no sun for her to dry her wings with, she was flapping them! We also saw lots of pelicans.
For dinner Mum cooked stew in the camp oven. It was delicious! For sweets we had the pineapple cake, that mum made earlier, with custard.

“Lucky ducks,” says George ( i.e. the camp cooking, the river boat, the birds, the whole thing!!)
We’ll be so happy to have you back but will miss our revolving office chair ride around Australia with you. Karen, when is the camp-oven cookbook being published??
Being a bridge lover I love the photo of you on the Bourke bridge and also the one of Tess and Tara on the Darling. Everything looks very green and no wonder you have seen so many water birds.
I was really interested to see Fred Hollows ‘rock grave’. What a special place that must be with an invitation to sit upon it.
Hope it didn’t rain in Dubbo today if that’s where you were.
Not many more sleeps… lol
