Stayed at Minalya
Roadhouse – we were the first in but by 6pm the place was full – about 10
sites.
Thursday, August 7 to Sunday, August 10:
At Wintersun CP
Carnarvon. It was a chance to re-visit the place we stopped for a couple of
weeks in 1982. Lots of new buildings;
lots of farms growing lots of different vegetables.
While there we drove
to Gascoyne Junction 150kms east to see where the Gascogyne River joined with
others – interesting drive. The town was destroyed by the 2010 flood but has
been re-built with a great caravan park combined with the pub, general store
and petrol station.
The Gascoyne River at Gascoyne Junction. |
The final straight of the Junction Race Club's track at Gascoyne Junction. |
Cattle enjoy a well-earned drink at one of the waterholes along the Gascoyne River which runs underground most of its length. |
Had a swim in the
pool.
Met up with Baz and
Lyn (Viet Vet) again at the port so we had dinner at the Gascoyne Hotel with
them.
