We
woke just after 6am. After doing our gym workouts, breakfast and packing up we
were away at 8:20am. We encountered some roadworks between Toowoomba and
Goondiwindi. After refuelling in Goondiwindi,
we continued south to Moree. Unfortunately, we spent quite some time stuck
behind two separate vehicles that were travelling more than 30km/h below the speed
limit, as well as several areas of roadworks. After a late lunch the plan was
to relax at the Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre – however it was closed this week
for maintenance. Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre After reviewing our options,
we decided to head to Pilliga Artesian Bore Baths. On the way we saw a few emus in the fields
near the road. We arrived about 4pm and set up camp. This is a very popular spot. We enjoyed a
soak in the Artesian Bore Pool before watching the beautiful outback dusk and
sunset. Pilliga Artesian Bore Baths
