Hay - Burra

Morning Report by Sally & Noel Rippingale

From Hay to Mildura, 290km we travelled. Beautiful Mildura, Victoria located on the south bank of the Murray River at the junction of the Calder and Sturt Highways.

Here Mildura RetireInvest and the Lions Club co-ordinated by Don Wright … they really made our lunch stop very bright!

A bountiful lunch they laid on … a sterling group of gentlemen … they did no wrong!!

Foxtrot Papa were most grateful for the lunch For we are a jolly hungry bunch!

Their hospitality made us aware that there are people abound that really do care!

that our disabled truly equal the able!!

From all the Foxtrot Papa participants, we say thank you to all from the Mildura RetireInvest and Lions Club for providing such a wonderful BBQ lunch, it was truly appreciated by all.

Afternoon Report by Branka Pupovac

On behalf of all the wheelies our greatest thanks is to be extended to all 16 professional drivers for teaching us what proper convoy procedure means. Great communication skills aided our unforgettable Grand Nocturnal Mystery Tour of Burra in the howling rain and wind. Thankfully the time difference gave us even more time to appreciate the beauty of Burra.

The Redruth Christian Convention Centre was appreciated immensely as temperatures dropped to a chilly 0°C overnight and the alternative was to camp in about two inches of icewater. The rest of the night was pleasantly spent, in front of a warm open fire.

A late meal of chicken casserole which had been prepared by Jill was enjoyed by all before we all retreated to our beds.

Thank you, to all Toyota Club members, for what became a trip of a life time and for taking us far, wide and everywhere in between. Nothing was impossible.
