We've entered the warm weather region, at last, after another cold morning at Urandangi.
Highlights from today (Tues-28th):
- Making it to Mt Isa with a sniff of fuel left
- Rough roads but easy day. Mix of corrugations & single-lane bitumen
- Another cullinary delight for dinner from the kitchen of Tosh
- Penne of sweet chilli tuna with a sundried tomato pesto
- Penne of navy beans, baked with a cheesy crimson tomato jus
- Another piece of fruitcake
- Sitting here in thongs & shorts after dark
- Hearing from other travellers that Karumba mightn't be as crowded as feared, so might be able to get a site
- Another warm shower
Lowlights:
- They don't sell Menz Crown Mints in Mt Isa! Had to make do with Allens Extra Strong
- Baked beans and pasta needs some spicing up (reminder for next time...)
- Head-on with two rare, protected, endangered native Corellas
- After the grassed campsite last night, the Burke & Wills is a MAJOR disappointment
- Loss of Country Music late in trip due to low battery in iPod & phone
- First encounter with mosquitos
Relatively short run to Karumba tomorrow to check accommodation availability.
Tosh & Techo.
