We had an early morning start as we have quite a few km to cover on the first few days. There are a few ways we could have headed to Birdsville, but of course we are picking the off-road way!
Although the day was predominantly driving, we did make time for a stop in Nyngan to visit The Big Bogan! Australia has so many ‘Big Things’ and we keep a list on our website of all that we visit, so a quick stop was definitely on the cards.
We ended up driving for exactly 12 hours and found a place to free camp down a little track off the side of the road.
Not another person in sight all night and the whole place to ourselves, A great first night camping after a long day.
Campfire, beers and prawns cooked over the fire …. yeah life is pretty good!
