Wagga Wagga Oct 27th
Well we left Sydney at 8.15am (peak hour, well planned!) and
blended in to the peak hour traffic with our Jayco Eagle. After brief stops at
Suttons Forest, Yass and the Dog on the Tuckerbox, we arrived in the thriving
metropolis of Wagga Wagga or as Arnold would say “Vagga Vagga”. We are staying
in the Big 4 caravan park on the Murrumbidgee River.
I experienced my first happy hour and have instantly
fitted in with the grey nomads and made life- long friends with Hal, Sandy and the
Probus club boys from Sydney. Actually, I recognised a former RailCorp employee
Ken (pictured on the left) who gave me some great travel tips with his mate Ken on the right of me.
Sera S will know him. Fiona is still organising the
van to her liking and trying to find her rhythm. We have worked out that things
close down for the night in the park pretty early.
We have visited the Botanical gardens , the zoo, the Wagga
Wagga sporting hall of fame museum
and are about to have a spot of cricket by
the river. Georgia and Andrew begged us to take them to the Wagga library to do some schoolwork. Tomorrow we go to the RAAF museum.
Next stop Corowa, NSW on the Murray River.
I am still trying to work out this blogging and how to arrange pictures etc. Ronny Barrantes will be proud of me. Can someone please comment that this has been published successfully.
Hi Burton Family,
ReplyDeleteYes I can see your post and photos. I think you may be too young to join the Grey Nomads just yet. Very impressed that Georgia and Andrew wanted to go the Library to do homework and pose for a photo. Well done. Love Faun and George.
Rodney,
ReplyDeleteJust to let you know. Dad was in Hospital for two days last week with high blood sugar levels. He is back at Home now and being monitored closely.
They are back at the Doctors today to go over his results and to get an appointment with his specialist prior to going to Queensland.
