Wilcannia

We caught up with the flood waters again! The direct road from Bourke to Wilcannia along the Darling River was still closed, hence the detour via Cobar. So there was not much evidence of flooding until we rejoined the Darling in Wilcannia. Below are the floodplains just outside town.





The Darling River in Wilcannia. The toilet block is still under water. I've never seen that many mosquitoes in one place!! We got out of the car for about 5 seconds! 

Wilcannia has some fantastic old (empty) buildings. Unfortunately nobody seems to live there anymore....
