Leaving Echuca “google maps” once again took us on some interesting backroads on our route to Nhill. The morning was calm but very cold and we knew we might be heading into some weather, according to the forecast. We enjoyed the small towns stopping in the town of Charlton for coffee. This town is in Western Victoria, in the Shire of Buloke, a shire which has a lot to offer, so once again I was making notes for future visits. We passed through more farming areas but notice that some of the canola farms were also wind farms with many wind turbines scattered among the fields. We made good time, passing the famous Pink Lake, before arriving in Nhill for lunch. The wind had really picked up in the afternoon but so far, we have avoided any rain so we’re keeping our fingers crossed. We spent the afternoon visiting some small cemeteries, the lake in Nhill and checking out the golf course. Rob probably would have played if it hadn’t been so windy. It certainly looked like a very good course. (It has been noted for future visits.) All things going well, tomorrow we will be home.
