Early Autumn Roadtrip: Uralla to Gundegai

Open flat road stretching ahead

The first day of our roadtrip to Victoria was driving to Gundegai, NSW (approximately eight hours drive, a little more than halfway to our destination.) It started off as a clear, hot day, but by late afternoon some welcome clouds rolled in and we even had a little rain.

It was pretty interesting to drive that long (our previous roadtrips have only ever been as far as the Blue Mountains, Sydney, or Brisbane), especially inland through agricultural land. We drove through fields of cut wheat, sorghum, corn, but most of all (and of course) seemingly endless open cattle grazing land. The photos may look pretty monotonous, all just varying shades of brown, but it was pretty neat to see the subtle changes in the landscape as we drove.

Dry harvested fields

There is one section of road that crosses the railroad tracks eight or nine times..
we counted, we thought it was pretty funny.

Some neat wrought ironworks in a stop along the way
