On the road again

 Today we let all our friends and we have to say a big thank you to of them. We had a great time  in PC.  This morning we left the coast and drove up the mountain to Mareeba. Set up camp and went mountain biking. Awesome ride, some Margaritas and then yummy mussels in white wine broth with garlic bread.

Bramwell to Hann River station

 Long drive today and everything went well. Set camp and Petra made some fantastic lobster spaghetti with lemon and butter. 😘😘😘😘

Twin falls & Elliot falls

Image
 Same road back direction Bramwell but without caravan and dropped air pressure more down, 22 psi. Worked very well and we increased speed up to 85 km/ hrs to fly over the corrugations.  Great day at the falls and a good off-road drive. Car performed

Heading south back to Bramwell Station

 Left after breakfast Loyalty Beach and had a fast smooth run to Jardins River ferry. No wait, quick cross and the bad roads started. Corrugation got worse after turn off to Fruit bate falls. 80 km away from Bramwell my right mirror nearly fell off. Had to hold it first, then tied it with cable ties.  At Bramwell station we set up and started to repair all issues  Had to borrow a screw from a neighbour camper to fix the mirror, then discovered that I had lost another screw on one of my high beam lights. Fixed it. After all this we started a camp fire and had a really yummy dinner.
