After a fantastic 10 days in Broken Hill we headed back to the coast. We took our time getting there stopping at some lovely spots. We stopped in Narrandera and had a go at playing the largest playable guitar in the Southern Hemisphere. It's length is 5.8metres and the width is 2metres. It needs 2 people to play and we hit a few bum notes. About 3 quarters of the way back we got pulled over by the police, I (Ruth) was breathalised, and even though I hadn't had a drink in days I'm sure I had guilt written all over me. They explained that they'd stopped us because they'd caught the same model vehicle a few days previous smuggling drugs over the boarder. They looked at how packed full our van was, and you could tell they really couldn't be bothered to go through it so they just asked “Look, do you guys do drugs?”
We replied “No” (I was still flushed) but that was good enough for them. Off we went on with our trip.
