Day 64 Mataranka to Banka Banka Station 4.6.17

Branch had really been missing the fun and games with the Wells and Hunters….things had been quiet on the western front…..however this morning we were on schedule to leave, all packed up and Trev went to start the Prado to hook the van on and…..dead battery!! Branch was out like a flash feeling useful and loved šŸ˜†

The guy next door to us came over promptly with his battery starter that he had never used before..after a quick look, then a read of the instructions (!!) our car started and we were on our way….

Our lunch stop was the famous Daly Waters Pub with its huge collection of personal memorabilia including caps, badges, thongs, bras, undies and anything else you might find in lost property or a junk shop!

We looked for Rosie’s bra she allegedly left above the bar but it could have been any number of ones on display šŸ˜†

There was some ome NSWFB memorabilia….and an army namebadge from a “Shelton” soldier….

We arrived at Banka Banka Station and set up for the night. The station had a large collection of farming memorabilia and the original mud brick homestead was still standing…tho now used as the kiosk and laundry.
