Our Bus Stop Forbes adventure - Debstar - 22-07-2022
The Obligatory before you leave photo
Travelling to Forbes through very dry countryside
Finally here at Apex Riverside CVP & score a gorgeous camp site beside the Lachlan River
Saturday we had our photo shoot & Kruise to Parkes to see the dish
Nearly missed this, the Camel Races, we were welcomed warmly by the locals & experienced a totally different style of racing
When racing there are no reins to guide the camels, the jockey literally hangs on like a limpet & hopes the camel will go in the right direction
Saturday night Gala Dinner theme "Space"
Phil was quite chuffed at winning best male costume
Darth aka Chris & his lovely companion Sharyn
Then Sunday night around the camp drinkies & being serenaded by Andy (Uke baby)
I haven't photos unfortunately of the races, here I hope some one else has them saved
Monday was home day, sadly we were strongly advised by other Kombians after the Kruise on the Saturday to not drive BillHily home as he was sick, so we waved goodbye to everyone as they were leaving & waited for BillHily to join the tilt tray club
at least the truck matched

I thought I had some pics from here. Have to check my old phones and iPad.
