Our last meeting with the Murrumbidgee before we both headed for the Murray was Hay. There’s a lot of flat brown land around Hay, but hey, we won’t hold that against it. It has it’s own charms.

The caravan park had a pool so the kids could swim, which they did once. The days were (and still are) clear and warm, but at night the temperature has been dropping.

I did a bit of riding around as there were some great paths along the river.

We went into ‘Shear Outback’, the shearers hall of fame and saw a guy shear a sheep.

We have had some long driving days to get across this mostly empty flat part of the country, but it has been very an eye opener to see such long flat dusty stretches of country.
