After a quiet evening in Menindee we have coffee and some fruit, service the camper and get ready for the day. With the roads closed to the south we have no choice but to return to Broken Hill and head east to Wilcannia. But first we will catch some sights around the lakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Menindee is more an outpost than a town although it does have a Police Station and several government services buildings. There are two pubs so it must be a town.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Whilst servicing the Winnebago a guy in some uniform walks past. He was something to do with the water resources authority. Anyway he told us the best spots to get a view of the lakes, and some background about the current water levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
