An early start today after toast and coffee. We've purchased a coffee machine that runs off the inverter that is a lot faster than our stove top Otto and can be used without setting up the kitchen. Otto will still come into 'his' own when we're camping for a few days and the conserving of power is a priority.
It's a bit boring travelling through countryside you were in a few days ago but eventually, we were through Warialda and heading further west to Moree where we stocked up at the supermarket and had lunch before heading further west to Collarenebri, our camp for the night. It's amazing the amount of cotton that is being grown out here these days.
Supposedly there are some indigenous fish traps on the Barwon River near Brewarrina, so before setting up camp at the Recreation Ground (a free campsite) we headed to the weir to have a look. I did read somewhere that they were only obvious when the river was low so I guess it was not low enough for that today. The weir has a fish ladder incorporated into its design which was pleasing to see.
Back to the recreation ground where we set up camp on the river bank away from other campers. Was a very pleasant spot. Lots of birdlife.
