22nd August 2016 Annabranch Bridge – Broken Hill



Woke this morning to a very fine drizzle on the tent roof and very dull although not cold.  Managed to have brekkie and pack up with no rain or drizzle so all good.  This morning we are heading 190km to Broken Hill where we plan to have a nice shower at the TI.  Rain, rain and more bloody rain, looks like we may be waiting it out at Broken Hill for a couple of days as we have just heard on the radio that the roads north towards Innamincka are closed. As we travel towards Broken Hill there is a lot of water lying beside the road so not looking good at the moment and the waiting game begins. As we were about to leave Broken Hill we heard a strange noise coming from the booster in the car so we have called into Nissan to have it checked out before we go any further.  While we were at Nissan Lyn & Kevin have booked us into a Caravan Park for the night into a cabin and we are going to head towards Wilcannia and then along the Darling River towards Bourke.  The roads are closed from Broken Hill to Innamincka and Innamincka to Birdsville until probably Thursday at this stage so we are taking the long way around.  Lucky we are flexible.
