#GA5389 - 08:05; Day three of a mission through the Central West of New South Wales with Sol de lune to grab some of the dragonZones to our west was now on the homeward leg. After spending the night in Carinda, we headed south for home through Quambone, Coonamble, Gulargambone, Gilgandra, Dubbo, Tomingly, Parkes, Forbes and Grenfell. Today we collected finds in Walgett, Coonamble, Dubbo, Narromine, Parkes, Forbes and Weddin dragonZones and counties on our way home with some 2200 kms on the clock for the mission. TFTT Geocaching Australia Very Happy

Sol de lune

Out on a road trip with LuckyL10n to grab a few dragonZones in outback NSW that we still had to visit including Bland, Carrathool, Lachlan, Cobar, Brewarrina, Walgett, Coonamble as well as grabbing a few caches in previously visited zones. A fun 3 days with over 2200 klms notched up along the way. A visit to the little town of Carinda which is famous for a visit by David Bowie to record a film clip for one of his single releases, was a bit of a highlight. A neat pub with great food and a good sort of atmosphere. Well worth the drive off the main road to check it out. At $55 a night the accommodation, while basic, was not too bad.

This was one of the many trigs we found while out and about. No issues here and the required photo was soon snapped.

Thanks for another trig....

I decided a weekend dash north to finish my inland NSW counties was in order. The aim was Brewarrina for the two Earth Caches. Day 3. I headed south aiagn, this time via some diry to visit Carinda and Quambone. Then it was back to the bitumen at Gulargambone for a few more caches before returning to Wellington via Dubbo.

The dirst road got a bit worse as I got further south, but once I was here the CORS was easily spotted from around the back.

Thanks
