Ok so Sunday dawned, Tom was all fired up so we said our goodbyes and took off heading south. First stop the Bridge Rest Area 33km south of Adelaide River. This is a nice little next to but hidden from a small river that only houses a small number of vans. Like any good camping spot it filled up during the afternoon with about 10 vans, 1 camper trailer and 1 cyclist. The camper trailer parked almost on top of the cyclist but nobody seemed to mind. So the afternoon was spent chatting to the cyclist, the camper trailer people and towards the end of the day 2 solo ladies in motorhomes.
The next day we took off again heading north to Adelaide River the 12km southwest to Robin Falls. This turned out to be a little bit of paradise, very few vans but lots of visitors to do to walk up to the falls. We were parked in the last spot before the path to the falls, our girlfriends from the previous night one spot back. So we all enjoyed the, very difficult, walk to the falls followed by a very refreshing swim in the cool clear water of the stream. Elaine did the walk which was great!
Then came yesterday and we left the falls, parted company with Tom & Laureen and headed into Adelaide River again. We planned to go to Douglas-Daly but the road to our selected destination was unsealed so we went back to the Stuart Hwy and spent the night at Hayes Creek C/Park.
