OK I know it is 2 days again, but yesterday we were still in carnarvon and nothing much happened. I spent a few hours up at the Space Museum again as they got ready for show time today. Elaine did some bits and pieces on the van and around the house. Di & Mark got back after school and after lunch respectively and we heard all about the camp. Elaine had cooked dinner and after dinner we saw Marks photographs, as usual very high standard. 

Today however is different. Elaine and I attended a morning tea to mark the end of this stage of the museum project and to welcomeAndy Thomas, the Australian astronaut, to town. After that our van was extracted from its parking spot, which Mark had to do because it was such a tight fit and he was used to it. Then we did the usuals and headed out of town. Naturally we are going south and expect to be home in about 10 days. 

Our camp for tonight is the Gladstone Scenic Lookout, which as the name implys is a fairly high hill overlooking the surrounding countryside. Looking to the west we can see Shark Bay, if I am correct the top of  the Peron Peninsular. It is quite a sight and we are expecting a good sunset.
