"After a great time with Maryvonne and Bruce we all travelled to Jamestown where we parted company, they were heading to Burra to meet friends and we were heading to Peterborough. We arrived after lunch, had a quick look around town and then headed out 2 ks to a free camp spot, close to the railway line but only a couple of goods train pass through and very friendly if you wave they give you a toot.... It was a windy cold night and morning too, laid in bed and had a leisurely breakfast, Hot Cross Buns as was Good Friday. We then headed back into Peterborough and had a coffee and a look around, they had an art and craft trail on and we visited the Art and Photo display and quilts etc, Brian went to the Steam Rail Heritage Centre, which he enjoyed. No passenger trains since 1990 but goods train passing by now. Headed to another free camp at the other end of town Friday night and then Saturday morning we made our way in again and looked around the Easter markets and did mundane jobs like visiting the launderette to do washing......
We have travelled along the Barrier Hwy towards Broken Hill and have now stopped at Olary, near the rail track of course but a pub over the road, nothing else just the pub, great we thought, camp and then walk over for a drink, not to be, it's closed, a pub in the middle of nowhere closed!,! But lovely sunset and a full moon, took lots of photos but deleted them by mistake......... Hoping I can borrow a couple from Brian, but I think a good book and bed is the way to go
Our first night outside Peterborough with goods train passing by, so friendly
