We are staying at Gulargambone caravan park ( 6 Galah rating. The park is owned and run BY Pam and graham.
Gulargambone is aboriginal for plenty galah birds. There are about 40 corrugated galah bird sculptures in and around town.
Every new arrival to the park has a special treat, graham makes a damper to share with the other guests, Graham is a chef, the food that he cooks in a camp oven most nights is just great, the night that we arrived he made a char grilled zucchini, garlic and olive oil damper, we shared with the other campers and took the left over back to our van, about half a damper, they are that big.
They sell a bottle of red or white wine, with their own label on it and is named galah piss.
Tonight graham cooked up a tuna damper, with a side dressing of mayo, lime, wasabi, chopped capers and gherkins, plus he entertained us with a very good comedy act and he sang waltzing Matilda with a Japanese accent, just great stuff.
8Th May. Mothers day, our host cooked a special breakfast for all the mothers in the park, for a small donation that goes to the royal flying doctor service, breakfast consisted of bacon, eggs, rump steak,tomatoes,Lambs fry and onions.
We were supposed to move next morning, but graham and Pam informed us that he was cooking a camp oven meal next evening, of roast pork, roast goat and roast kangaroo. Well these two happy campers were not about to leave just yet and only $15 each with half the proceeds going to the Royal Flying Doctor ( r.f.d.)
10/May. moving on this time to Coonamble. Stayed here for a couple of days then left for Walget. We saw a bit of wildlife driving here, a lot of Emu's, Roo's and a Fox stalking a lizard. We had to fill up with autogas in town, .90 cent's a litre but when Sandra went in to pay the mongrels had Jacked up the price on the bowser to 99.9 cents per Litre, only autogas in town we did not pay another cent in walget drove straight to Lightning Ridge.
Friday the 13Th, we had a look in Sandy's opal shop here in the ridge, where they made an opal necklace for Oprah Winfrey, valued at over 20,000 bucks.
so much to see and do here, the artesian bore baths are great after a long day fossiking and sight seeing, john Murray's art gallery is amazing,
the black opal tour is well worth the money, lightning ridge is famous for the black opal.
went to a garage sale an bought a toaster as our old one has carked it.
I just can not help myself, got bogged at the back of caravan park., (looking for opals,) had to get a tractor to pull me out of the mud.
