Sunday 11th June

Lukewarm coffee due to a gas shortage in HOME42. Fortunately the local resupply was open at 8am. A slow trip from Borroloola due to the poor roads....this time mainly corrugations with fewer washouts. All creek crossings are now less than knee deep and the firm rocky bases make them straghtforward. We checked into Lorella Springs and spent well over 1 hour splashing around by ourselves in the moderately warm spring. It's cooler than normal due to the late and significant wet season. It was a short drive to see an eagles nest by the billabongs.
