Free camp at Desert Oaks RA

Great camp! Red soil and scrub. Luckily our new neighbour from Streaky Bay (driving a big converted bus) had packed some wood with them, as the camp was picked clean! Graham and Maureen were seasoned campers, so we sat around a lovely fire sharing a beer. About 30- 40 campers, caravans and a bus shared this spot, with great toilets- even if they were long drops. You start to spot the same campers from other stops and many were here. We had to join a queue at Kulgera, for petrol. While Ian waited, I went into the pub and bought a couple of bottles of Shiraz. The choice wasn't what make of wine, but simply Shiraz or Merlot. Definitely a man's outback pub! Bras and knickers hung from the rafters. And with the amount of shoes hanging from the hills hoist outside, I guess many left this place with fewer things to pack in their Van's!
We were now in the Northern Territory. Big skies, and red dirt!Weiterlesen
