We have decided not to go to Alice Springs and Ayres Rock this trip...........yes, that means there will be more trips but much shorter ones in the future.
It is still quite cold down there and amongst other reasons we have decided to head for home, yay! So I am not flying home as originally planned and I am staying with Keith till the end!
We are in Katherine at the moment, actually, staying at the Gorge which is very nice. We are in a caravan park in the national park, with power and everything! Even a lovely swimming pool in a grassy area. There is a cafe and live entertainment. What more could you ask for? The only trouble is it has turned cool and too cold for swimming today.
We heard that the Mt Isa rodeo is on this weekend so have decided to hot foot it to be there on Sunday. After that a few towns along the way before Moranbah, Blackwater and Gladstone to visit the family and home by 19 August.
That is the plan anyway.

Don't be in too much of rush to get back here; its been down to frost here in Brisbane. I hope those noisy RAAF planes at Tindal aren't intruding on your peace and quiet at the Gorge. Last time I was at the Gorge was 1979 and I recall swimming peacefully, until we spotted a croc!
ReplyDeleteI believe it's now called Ulluru. Hurry home!
