The children, including two grandchildren when it got too hot. Hi all, just back from a 5 day camping trip to a working outback station called Bogan Downs. It is a beautiful farm and had lots of activities. See the farm link below for a cottage that they rent out. We didn't rent this out but stayed on the edge of the creek and roughed it. No power, water or toilet facilities. It was a real test for the cape york trip. We found that the creek was a great place to cool down in the middle of the day and we travelled around the farm on our quad bikes in the cool of the morning and evening. Lots of fun had in the mud.
The farm is just outside of a town called Coolabah which is 200km from Cobar. A thousand km from home. Took us 12 hrs to get there.

Coolabah
Who is the old bloke on the home page? -- thank heavens Tonina is there to add some class & balance to the duo. Coolabah I have heard about but it was also known as" Chateau Cardboard" & was a drop not to be recommended. Great idea having a trial run before the "big one" but this trip certainly sounds like a big success, Keep smiling, Colin & Helen Jameson
