Monday, June 9:
Olivia’s birthday. Off
early to Port Augusta for replenishing our supplies and fuel and after lunch in
the nearby hotel it was off north along the Stuart Highway – a part we had not
travelled before.
Our campfire is well and truly underway. |
It wasn’t long before
we were in the saltbush plains followed by rolling hills and stony hills where
trees struggled to grow and survive. After studying Wiki Camp, we decided to
stay at Maslin way side stop and did as suggested – turned off and drove 1km along
the track to a gorgeous camp spot. The previous camper had kindly left some
wood so with some time gathering our own we soon had a fire going. There’s
nothing better than sitting around an open fire, drink in hand watching the
casserole cooking in the camp oven. We finished with billy tea. As the wood was
only small, it wasn’t long before it was time to turn in for the night.
We must do more of
this.
