NEARLY INCIDENT FREE

DAY 5
This is my second attempt.  I just deleted everything I had written for this entrey.  Ok INCIDENT 6 Went to put the jug on for a cuppa this morning and of course it wouldn't go.  Never mind we are still in Broken Hill and Big W is only down the road so I just had to get another one. ($8.50 for a cordless jug).

Today we decided to go out to Lake Menindee which is about 120klm west of Broken Hill.  Very flat drive and the only thing we saw between here and Menindee were emu's.

Darling River
 Lake Menindee has had very little water in it for many years but since all the rain this year not only is Lake Menindee completely full but a number of smaller lakes around Lake Menindee are full as well.  Absolutely beautiful.  The Darling River runs through Menindee and "Burke & Wills camped here".


Pro Hart's Rolls Royce
 When we got back to Broken Hill decided to go and have a look at Pro Hart's Gallery.  His Rolls Royce was something to look at.
