Day 9 - Home Time - 211008

It was daylight when we left! Nice change. Redda drove cos he knew I wanted to stop at the dish at Parkes. Which we did. I loved it. It was closed at the time. We were early. So we didnt go in. I wish we could have. It is 64m across. HUGE!!!


You have to turn off video cameras and phones when you go there. Mum went and got a good pic for me (the sun was in the wrong spot for me). And when she got back her hair was like it was all full of static. It was a pisser!
Drove for hours. Stopped at Forbes to get petrol and suddenly there are people waiting on us in the servo!!! YES IT IS A FULL SERVICE SERVO!!! Petrol was done for us, and they even cleaned the window!
Then laughed my guts out cos there was a place called Bogan Gate!!! For all the ones who dont know what a bogan is, its a feral, or a red neck!

Marsden, West Wylong, Alleena, GRONG GRONG, Narrandera, Gillenbah, Corobimilla, Jerilderie, Finley and TOCUMWAL!!!

How bloody dry is this place?!?

Finally got back to mums at about 1pm. Monty went spastic when he saw me. I missed him too. He was so excited. So after he finally settled down a bit I just chucked all my stuff in my car and headed home. Too tired to stop. Just wanted to get home, check on the cat and unpack.
All was fine at home. Star was good! Meowed his little face off when he saw me, and he has been close by ever since. Poor baby!
The holiday was great. I really enjoyed it. Mum has no idea how much I appreciate what she did for me. I’m so lucky to have her! My fave bit was definitly Australia Zoo. I just had the best day there and could have spent hours more there.
I want to go back there one day to see more. Now that I have had a holiday (first one in 14 years) and travelled a bit, I want to travel more. All I want to do is to just bugger off and travel and go from place to place. I just want to live!
