When we woke this morning we were surrounded by cars parked everywhere while people visited the Sunday Markets which had been set up on a grassed area a short distance from our vans. We were planning to leave this morning and the way the cars were parked we couldn't get out. Luckily for us it was not a large market and the people were not staying long. When close cars left I put our table out near the road so no-one could hem me in again. We eventually got away about 9.30am and headed for Orange. We had a quick drive around town until we found the Visitor Information Centre. We went in and had a look around and I bought a small soft toy for my granddaughter, Stella. Then we hit the road again and planned to spend the night at Gulgong. On the way we passed through Molong and had lunch there behind the Information Centre and Craft Shop in a shaded area under wonderful grape vines. When we arrived at Gulgong we found the caravan park had a sign stating the park was full and the office was closed. We had a walk around and found about 14 empty powered sites. Mary-Anne said they could stuff their sites so we continued on. Finally about 3.30pm we found a wonderful privately owned caravan park at Dunedoo with heaps of empty powered sites. We set up camp and spent a restful afternoon.

We woke to brilliant sunny skies and a mild temperature this morning. We decided to spend another day here just to relax and recharge our human batteries. The Mary-Anne did some washing while Karen sat around in her PJ's reading her book. I spent the morning updating the computer diary. The rest of the day we just sat around doing bugger all.
