Sunday 16th April

We got sick of South Australia so we went to Cameron Corner to visit Qld and NSW.  It was here that we first heard the good news that Hawthorn thrashed Geelong.  Cathy sang the Hawks theme song all the way to Innamincka.  Crossing the dunes to and from the corner was like riding a roller coaster - lots of fun.  Fortunately we didn't have to fill up with fuel there as diesel was $1.70 per litre.  It made it feel like a bargain when we filled up at 162.9 in Innamincka.  Arriving in Innamincka ("Aus.slang"for tin sheds on the surface of the moon) we finally got a shower and had a coffee so Cathy started to be nice again!  She even bought David an Akubra cattleman's hat at the pub where we enjoyed a cooper's sparkling ale.  WE camped by the edge of the Cooper Creek at Town Common.
