WED 12 - THURS 13.6.2013: Began the day organising for our departure from Narrabri then received the call from Anette (Carole's sister), to advise of a severe storm warning - thunder, lightening, threat of hail etc. etc.! Checked the weather reports and it was in our best interests to remain put. Went up and paid for another night and had to power walk back to the motorhome to miss the rain - took the afternoon to recover! Thursday dawned and we woke to the
B-I-G fog. Made the decision to exit the Showground and head for Lightning Ridge. Tye Davies suggested we stop at Burren Junction Baths Reserve - a must do. We left Narrabri still debating on which of the "winter figures" would don their swimming costumes for a dip in the baths or alternatively, assume the role of photographer! Talk about the big wet - the red soil camp was flooded with only water sites available. Another motorhome that had stayed at Narrabri Showground pulled up and we all made the same decision - next stop Walgett! Stayed at the newly opened Alex Trevallion Park Freedom Camp 2klms south of Walgett.
