We drove from the Daydream Mine, through Silverton to the Umberumberka Reservoir (try saying that a few times, fast - or at all)! There's some more information, here.
Recent rain meant the dam was full, for the first time in a long time. We chatted to a local family who had particularly driven out from Broken Hill just to see water in the reservoir.
We headed back to Silverton for lunch at the famous pub - glad to be sitting out of the sun and resting for a while. At that stage, I had already completed 150% of my daily step goal!
Several cheeky apostlebirds wandered through the huge covered dining area, keen to share our lunch.
We had hoped to see donkeys at the pub but they weren't visiting that day and we didn't spot them anywhere else around the town.
After lunch we spent some very pleasant time at the Silverton Photography Gallery, chatting with Helen about cameras, photos and life - and admiring her lovely gardens.
