    NPA to Archer River Roadhouse

    August 25, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

    Heading southbound today. We were up and moving pretty quickly, luckily we had just finished packing up when it started to sprinkle. Off to the Jardine ferry, it's only a minute or 2 per go so it didn't take long for our turn to cross. We saw 2 guys on bicycles going the opposite way, not electric bikes either. The ferry operator took a selfie with them and had a good laugh. A few hours down the worst road we've come across so far and we hit Bramwell Junction. We got out to stretch our legs, fuel up and to reattach the rear number plate which was hanging on for dear life. We stopped in at Moreton Telegraph Station which we saw on the way up. Didn't realise it had a Kiosk and campgrounds. Looks like a nice spot with lots of Barramundi fishing on the Wenlock River. We wandered through the small museum and ended up having a chat to a few people heading north. Gave them the heads up about the road and the rodeo on this weekend. Back on the road to Archer River Roadhouse where we're spending the night, nothing too exciting along the way. We got in around 2, checked in and set up, then headed for the bar, which is where we've been since. Ben had a burger for dinner and I had a schnitty. Heading to Rinyirru national park tomorrow for a night, croc infested there we're told. We'll let you know.. or not..Read more
