Day 208 – Moree, NSW (6 Apr)

Drove 350 kms north from Dubbo to Moree.  One thing we have noticed in NSW is how in some towns, cars have to park on an P1100371angle rear in first.  Very odd, but drivers here do indicate to exit roundabouts - hallelujah.  Don’t get why this isn’t the case in Victoria and SA.  Quite disconcerting not knowing what a car is doing specially.  Moree and surrounds are known for their hot artesian pools.  The park we are staying at has four pools, one at 35, 36, 37 and 39 degrees and a cold water pool.  It is very well done just like spa baths.  I spent sometime in them tonight it was very relaxing.  The water is drawn 720m underground.  Chlorine is added to comply with Shire regulations then delivered to the pools.  To obtain the choice of water temperatures, water is cooled, filtered, chlorinated and piped into pools accordingly. After use the water is piped approx. 2.2kms to parks industrial yard for use in crushing and washing concrete aggregate.  After this the water is delivered to a dam for further use for irrigation or to be evaporated.

See how they park!
