• Day 129 - Cooinda to Mataranka

    6. september 2024, Australien ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C

    Wished Alex a Happy Birthday, miss not being there with him to celebrate. Packed up camp and on the road again.

    Heading to stay at Bitter Springs and catch up with John and Anne. It feels like a long time since we have seen them. 5 months!

    Saw our first snake for the trip today. It was Redbelly Black. Unfortunately, we couldn't avoid running over it.

    Picked up a couple of things in Mataranka and then drove out to Bitter Springs Camp. Heaps of trees, good amenities, scored a nice drive-through site, and only 500m walk to the Springs.

    I walked down to Springs to paddle my feet, and it was just as beautiful as last time we were here. Can't swim as my knee is still an open wound, but lovely anyway. Not too many ppl, either.

    Had a few drinks with John & Anne, had a lovely night catching up on what the family is up to, and the travels we have all done over the last few months.
