We were expecting near zero temperature, but I doesn’t feel that cold. A flock of Galahs is feeding on the grass just outside the van. We also get one final rainbow (#18 by Liam’s count)

Day 36 – Beechworth to Yass
A bitterly cold, raining morning as we packup. By the time we drive out I can hardly feel my fingers. There is this small creek that runs along the road out of the van park and it is in full flow, such an interesting sight.

Well lockdown is upon us. It’s not super clear what our status is as far as returning to NSW. There are “Affected Areas”, “Areas of Concern” and “High Concern”, all of Victoria is an “Affected Area”, and the best we can tell we haven’t been to any Area of Concern, high or otherwise.

Light rain this morning. It’s so warm in bed, but no heater so trying to get out of bed is pretty hard. Eventually we do, pack up and leave.

About 3am I hear rain. I know the chairs, while under the van are hanging out. I race out and just chuck them further under, at least they won’t be saturated.

A flock of cockatoos are surrounding the van as we get up, we try for a photo but they all fly away before we get ready. A grey and overcast morning. The next few days don’t look to be too great, but that’s OK, the weather has been so good to us really. We’ve only had a few full on rainy days and we’ve been able to work around those.

We all sleep in. After breakfast, I take a walk up to the next bend in the river. Unlike where we are, you can get down to the river pretty easy, it might have been a old boat ramp or something., There is a small beach here too.

At 7:30 the BOM was reporting -2.1°, it was certainly fresh, even with the diesel heater running. The fields next to the van park had a nice frost and even the van roof hatches had a cover of frost.

The BOM has this morning at 0°, but unlike yesterday morning it doesn’t feel that cold. In the sun it’s pretty nice. Over to the office to book for another night.
