On the first day we drove to Willie Retreat in the Macquarie Marshes. It was a nine hour drive which is quite reasonable by Australian standards and leaving Sydney is always a pleasant experience. I had been to willie retreat before but it was in winter so didn't previously get to experience the green tree frogs and geckos.
The next day we went to Gundabooka NP where we met up with Allan and Gemma. Lots of birds were seen with the highlights for me at least being the crimson chat, crested bellbird and the chestnut-breasted quail-thrush.
Gundabooka, it a nice walk from the look out to the top of this and back provided you have a compass and a spare day.
Lots of Shinglebacks about as well as bearded dragons.
Traumatising lizards
Still next time we go I'll make sure I take a few extra days off as 1,950 km in five days is a little bit too far.
Living the dream.
Lots more photos can be found here.
