Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong

Under the shade of a Coolibah tree,

And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,

"Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?"

Ek en swag en billy by Berry Jerry State Forest naby Wagga Wagga (NSW). Wie het 'n hotel nodig as jy so kan oornag?

Die tentjie ding is die "swag". Plein seil, met muskietnet bo oor jou as jy die sterre wil sien, en ook bo jou kop. Die matras wat binne is bly binne, tesame met jou kooigoed, dan rol jy net die hele ding op. Ek sien die goed baie hier, en om eerlik te wees, dis die beste kampding wat ek in al my jare van kamp teegekom het, dit pas uitstekend in die klimaat, en jy slaan dan jou hele kamp op in 10 minute. Hy is ook merkwaardig waterdig, ons het al in koue en reën naby Shellharbour geslaap, en nie een druppel water gekry of koud gekry nie. Hier in die outback races sien jy die swags by die honderde, en baie van die manne hier ry dit saam rond, want jy rol net oop en slaap, in reen of hael of sneeu of goggas.....

But where is the aircon, hot water shower, toilet, duvet, microwave, etc?

:)

Aircon - The swag has a flyscreen

Hot water shower - River behind me, in this heat the water is hot enough.

Toilet - There is more than enough trees there.

Duvet - In swag

Microwave - Billy located to my right.

So it's all there, and doesnt this hotel have a great view?
