Bit of a nothing day today. I left Griffith with some regrets. It is a lovely place, where I could easily spend some more time some day. The rest of the day was just an endless procession of farm land. I had a nice coffee and pastry at Jerilderie before I crossed into Victoria at Barham, headed up the Murray to past Swan Hill and turned left for Ouyen. There was stuff I could have had a look at around Kerang and Swan Hill, but I have been there before and as always I'm looking for new roads and new experiences. I was last here in this caravan park at Ouyen 40 years ago when I was just a pimply 18 year old on my 350 Honday twin. Incredibly the place hasn't changed a bit. It's still run down and grotty. Still, it's cheap and it's a bed. Last time I slept in my tent. Lord I'm getting old!! Tomorrow should be more interesting.
