New Years Eve

So this is what the trip was all about, to spend New Year's Eve in Cameron Corner and get to celebrate 3 times in one night!!

Party around the corner post

Festivities started in the early afternoon with games of horse shoe toss, mini golf etc. We took a wander around and met some of the other campers, even some from a few suburbs away from us!

The ground was marked with lines in the sand so we all knew which 'state' we had to be in! First to celebrate was NSW, we had the countdown and then everyone celebrated with each other.

Glow sticks, bracelets, rings and balls!

The real party started around 10.30pm (or 11.30 pm Sydney time). Everyone started to make their way up to the corner post where the owners had set up tables, chairs and music.

We all headed up with drinks, glow sticks and sparklers!

1/2 hour later we all moved over to South Australia, had another countdown and celebration. Finally it was Queensland's turn, so we all jumped over to line in the sand into Queensland for our final New Year's Eve celebrations for 2014.

This was finally finished off with a small fireworks display, not quite Sydney standard, but never seen fireworks in the middle of the outback before!

We were all in bed around 2am and up again at 6.30am to pack up camp! Not a great deal of sleep ..... the music blaring and talking, laughing and screaming all night didn't help things either, but hey it's New Year's Eve so what do you expect!! Must say that things were a lot quieter this morning!

What a great night, such a unique experience and such a great bunch of people. We estimate there would have been around 70 people there. We will definitely be coming back again! It's one of those things you really need to tick off your bucket list.
