We spent a week in Perth (flew over) to see Sandra's son & grandsons plus my daughter & granddaughters as it will be about 18 months before we manage to do the gypsy thing over that way. Arrived back last Friday, picked up the van then headed south. A couple of days in Parkes to see my parents then spent last night independent camping at Bethungra Dam, south of Crookwell, NSW. Nice spot, only a long drop loo but lovely outlook beside the dam. Supposed to be a good spot for Redfin but blowing a gale so didn't bother getting the lines out. Left there this morning for the huge trip to Wagga Wagga, now camped up at Wilks Reserve, pictured. Flush loos, town water, electric bbq's & an easy walk to the main shopping centre. Surprising that so few are camped here. Master plan, ATM, is to head south once we get bored, probably to Howlong near Albury, then on to see what all the fuss is about with Greens Lake
