On this leg of our trip out western NSW I saw lots and lots of cotton.  When we got to camp there were 2 dead pig carcasses nearby that stunk.  They were full of maggots.  Jake, me and Erin rode our bikes around until dark.  Then we sat and ate our dinner by the fire.

Left Karangi, Coffs Harbour at 7.30pm in our Ford Territory and 18 ft something Westport Caravan.  With the Tarplee family leading the way (Scott, Alison & kids Jake & Erin) we headed south and then west up and over the Dorrigo Mountain to Armidale. It was our mission to get our longest mileage completed by Day 3.  All in all the roads were pretty long and straight and it rained the entire way until we arrived at our free camp which was just 5km before the township of Warren.
