Nice are the mornings in the Hunter Valley... A little breakfast in the sunny garden with flowers and two national flags… The local leaders came to greet the Dream Quest : Cessnock City Council Bob Pynsent and Sean O’Brien, Head of paradise called Hunter Valley Gardens. Seducing are French women on beautiful old cars .
But no time to relax – still a little bit to drive .
The country-landscapes of New South Wales offer plenty of nice country roads. There is enough spirit to make some of us feel real cowboys after one or two coldies in an authentic pub of Nundle.
First camping in Tamworth prepares a little snow? We hope –not. Anyway we are going to dance with the Australian country music! A tranquil couple from Tamworth demonstrates very calm style of country songs, but at the end surprises the public with playing on spoons and throwing the microphone. What a temperament!
In the same time somewhere between country landscapes, some other dances are being performed -ritual dances around the unlucky 218... both front torsion bars are broken. The technical car OT5 with family Barret, the team 402 with family Kleindienst and OT4 with the young Autissier provide a technical support and help Durand’s mind not to drawn.. Somewhere without any food and any water… maybe some wine left from yesterday, Christian? Poor Gisele, why people think that birthday is a festivity and a rally is a vacation?
Tired teams have arrived in Tamworth close to the midnight with a good new – repaired. Good reason to drink one champagne and to have a good rest!
Thanks to everybody who helped!
Especially to Australian farmers, who brought their tractor to help tracbar…
