Left Winton on Sunday morning
With the intention of stopping at either the Blue Heeler pub at Kynuna or Crocodile Dundee’s pub at McKinley.
Funnily enough, my neighbours Ann and Russ were at Walkabout Creek having a coldie when I arrived.
It was still quite early in the day and there’s not a lot to do in those places so I kept on driving. This is brolga country and plenty can be seen as you drive along.
Anyway, looked at a couple of other camping spots but ended up staying in Mt Isa. Holey Dooley. The campground reception was behind bars. I was told to lock myself and all possessions inside at night and, even if I got up during the night to go to the loo, to lock the van and bathroom door behind me. Hhhmmm, a few problems there I think.
So, took off early on Monday and came to camp by a billabong just out of Camooweal. What a great spot! Quite a few of us here waiting for the border to open. Friendly crowd. Happy hour with lots of laughs each day at 4pm.
