Cameron Corner

We Left Tibooburra for CAMERON CORNER We drove through the famous dog fence which stretches for about 5,800 kms. It aims to stop dingoes from moving beyond it.

All of us at the corner post marking Cameron Corner.... the meeting place of the three states.. N.S.W. South Australia and Queensland.

We camped in front of the pub and had a few ales with the owners and the couple who were leaving after 15 mths of working in the pub. We also talked to a young, very French man and a German girl who were the new casual staff taking over. There are backpackers everywhere!! Talk about the "treasures" of the Outback!!!!!

Next morning we realised we had unwittingly camped at "Sew View"...... the septic run-off ! Needless to say we only stayed there one night.

Of course Paul and Glenn had to play the iconic nine hole golf course. There are three holes in each state and the shape of the holes on the greens vary from state to state. In NSW they are square. In Queensland triangular and in South Australia they are round. The greens are oiled sand to stop them blowing away and the flags very tattered. We really enjoyed the experience of walking the 'course' and the rules were bent around numerous obstacles, and many preferred lies taken. Ken caddied for Glenn and did a superior job!
