We are camped in the DeGrey rest area which is an official camp spot connected to the local aborigine group, shame on me, I can't remember the name (something like Ngarla), run I presume by the local shire. Amongst other things it, and others in this part of the world, have free wifi and a large notice board telling everybody who they are and welcoming visitors to their land.
Today I had important things happening about our boat and needed to be available on the phone, so we went up to the gazebo where the wifi is and set up to use Skype for the phone. All went well until we actually needed it, then it started plying up and dropping out. So we drove 30 k's back towards Hedland to get proper Internet etc. all went well after that and we made our phone call.
Then we had lunch and headed back to our camp spot, which we had saved by leaving our chairs and table and a towel hanging up! Cut some more wood for tonight's fire, enjoyed a fireside chat with our friends and.......thus ends another fabulous day on the road.
