The nearest town to our campground is Alexandra. Not a big town but enough to have about 3 coffee places, a couple of hotels/pubs, a National Australia Bank and the largest Foodworks supermarket I have ever been in.
One Saturday morning, we met two rangers who told us about the Pro Rodeo event in Alexandra. This is the first rodeo held in town since 1984. Of course we had to go. It is the most happening event for Alexandra and the whole town will be there!
Despite the on and off rain, there were lots of people. Likely the whole town turned up. Most people including us brought chairs and rain gear. We did not, however have our cowboy hat and boots and tight jeans. While we would love to stay till the end, the cold wet night got to us.
