Lush countryside on our scenic tour today
Hello from beautiful Gundagai.
We took the scenic trip today and visited Deniliquin first and checked out their golf course and thereabouts. Then went on to Berrigan, Wagga Wagga and then to Gundagai.
We enjoyed the stunning countryside with masses of Canola and Lucerne fields as far as the eye could see along with lush green paddocks full of sheep or cattle.
It was a very pleasant country road trip and it was great to skip the busy highway fighting off trucks and caravans.
