Over Easter covered over 1000 miles through the dusty interior, where major towns (eg; Goulbourn) are entirely without water and where vast lakes and dams lie dry. The weather out there, unfortunately, was perfect; cool nights for congregating around a fire, clear bright days of interrupted blue skies when it was a pleasure to be out in the sun (which only a masochist could say about summer). The wide brown land.
