Could anyone please let me know if they have had any experience with the "Warrawong on the Darling" caravan park at Wilcannia as we are planning to stay there later this week. A lot of people say Wilcannia is a no-go but surely the park is OK. Thanks await your replies.

Comments welcome on this: Went by train last week to Kalgoorlie, hired a car to drive to Leonora (about 240km) and back. On the way, an overtaking truck/trailer combo tossed up a stone which cracked the windscreen.. Luckily the glass held for the rest of the trip. I regarded this as an accident, not my f...
