Day 10, Thursday 2nd December 2021, Euroa to Home, hot 32 We didn’t get much rain last night, by 10:00pm we were opening the hatches again to cool things down.

Woody buys a couple of new shirts (as you do) and we head for home through picture-perfect green rolling hills and dairy farms. This year is wetter than most. … Continue reading Tocumwal, Day 10 – Euroa to Home
