We decided to keep driving until it started to cool in the evening. We headed through West Wyalong (where is East Wyalong, we wondered - we think it died as the west side grew!) and Parkes. We stopped to take a photo of the radio telescope that is featured in the movie "The Dish", but it needed to have been cooler for us to get inside of the visitors centre and to leave the dogs in the car.
Coonabarabran was were we pitched camp for the night. We saw the Warrumbungle mountains in the distance, but it was awkward to stop for a photo as I had traffic behind too close to safely do anything unpredictable!
We have found if we stay just a whisker over the speed limit for the road we have little trouble with the "double B" trucks, as we track between them and they don't catch up to us that easily. It's not much fun with one on your tail, and we try to get them to pass us as much as we can! Passing lanes are not for us to pass trucks, but for them to get by us!
