Wednesday 31st May

Back on the road again, we enjoyed driving through the water at Riversleigh as the car needed a wash. We met some interesting characters at a roadside lunchstop including "Roamin' Ruthie" then moved on to Mt Isa. The caravan park we checked in to has afternoon tea at 4.00pm so we met plenty of fellow travellers for scones, jam and cream. There was a TV in the camp kitchen so we saw the news for the first time in weeks - we haven't missed much! Not sure if hearing that it was going down to 7 deg Celsius overnight was good or not but we rugged up and survived.
