We wound our way up the Hume Highway. Stopped in Albury which was a larger town and decided we wanted to stay in a smaller town so headed to Gundagai. Gundagai is home of the famous Dog on the Tuckerbox monument, nestled between Mt Parnassus and the Murrumbidgee River. And they have two wooden bridges that are still standing today (but not used thankfully). I can't even imagine driving on this shaky thing. We talked with one of the bakers and they used to drive across it until 1987!!!
We almost weren't able to stay in Gundagai because all the hotels were filled with road crews. But luckily, we got one of the last two rooms. The next closest town was 100 km and we just didn't want to drive any further.
