Doughboy - Hogwash
We stayed at Doughboy Reserve so we could visit Stone Hut Bakery BUT unfortunately it was closed … so we decided to go back 8klms to Wirabarra to dump the loo and check out their bakery. On a scale of 1/10 we would give Wirabarra Bakery a 2 🥴
We stopped at Gulnare for the night and it was bloody hot !!! So hot we both went and had a cold shower, clothes and all at the amenities block .. did I mention it was HOT 🔥 So far every day since we left Norseman it’s been around 40 degrees ..
Looking for some relief from the heat and ability to catch up on the washing we chose to stop at Brinkworth & so glad we did .. what an awesome spot to stay ! $15 a night with power and water, a small area but big enough for 12 vans, walking distance to the Hotel and shower and toilets immaculate! A huge credit goes to the volunteers at Brinkworth and our thanks.
We stayed 4 nights at Brinkworth but one night we left the van there and drive to our Daughters place at Bellevue Heights, 12klms from Adelaide. We caught up with the family and had a nice night out at a Chinese restaurant.
Next day it was back to stay the night with the van and moved on to where we are now at Hogwash Bend on the Murray River. It took us longer to get here than a flight back to WA thanks to Google Maps , I wonder if they subsidise divorces as the friction was getting rather warm in the Chev, especially after encountering 16klms of rough dirt roadworks .. what took us an eternity could have been accomplished in 15 minutes had I not listen to Ms Google and listened to Mrs Vickie. 😁😁
So here we are, on the edge of the Murray River, kept company by the Kookaburras and Ducks & Butcher Birds … Serenity at last. Love it.
