    Stopping here for the night.
    Mark got a rock through his side wall 130ks from Wulina so went back to get another.
    Mark had to go back to Meekathara to get them. He arrived back at camp safely at 3pm with smoko!!! We are staying another night. Got 3 new birds. A Red throat, Western Gerygone & Western quail thrush. Need better photos though.Baca lagi

    Nice spot not much water left unfortunately.
    Some beautiful trees & rocks.
    Had to empty the toilet as it was extremely full. Luckily there were detailed instructions as to how to hook the waste trailer on to a car and where to dig a hole and burn it. Full credit to Mark for this one.
    Now travelling through the Little Sandy Desert. Next is the Gibson, then the Great Sandy Desert.

    Not such a good day.... we had a bit of trouble with our BP51s interfering with our Jmax axle. Stopped twice and spent about an hour under the car each time. Rang ARB and were told they have changed the design now!!!
    Just using glue now..... No that won't last, will have to make new plans unfortunately.
    Still working on the suspension the next day.

    Decided it was too far to get to Durba Spring today, as you have to be off the roads by 4.30. Lots of sand dunes today. Mark stopped on one and stayed stopped!!
    Fairly windy day with lots of sand blasting in places.
    Suspension still not fixed even though Mal & Mark spent some more time this morning under the Tojo.
    No water here but certainly some lovely ghost guns to camp around.

    Here to get some new shockies.
    Picked up a new set of smaller ones from ARB.
    When Mal went to put them on, he found one box didn't have any rubbers in it so had to go back again to collect them.
    Left Newman at 3.45pm to head back to the CSR.Baca lagi

    Stopped for water & smoko. Had a few tough sand dunes this morning. Bruce had two goes to get up & Mark had three. We shovelled the dune so Mark could get up.
    The guys are back under the Tojo.... Bruce noticed one cover from the shockie had moved down. So they are putting another spacer in.Baca lagi

    Did 52ks today, it was really rocky.
    Mark hopped under our vehicle this morning & took the cover off the new shockie as it was rubbing a little. He had just finished the diesel tank on his ute so decided while he was dirty he may as well do ours!! Take about road side assist.
    Saw a Thorny Devil today while the boys were fixing up a dune.
    Actually passed a car today. Our first one on the Canning.

    When we woke up this morning the flies were hanging around before the sun came up. Had a great day.
    Sadly we saw two camels in wells and one other dead one.
    Had a dingo outside our camper this morning.
    We drove along on top of the sand dunes for a few kilometers. That was not a nice feeling. Mr T's rear end wanted to go down the side!
    Lunch was in amongst the Desert Oaks.
    We called into the rocks to see the art, but there isn't much.
