Day 2

Left Capella at 9am. Went to Clermont and fuelled up @127.0 c/ltr. Drove on and decided we wouldn't get to cairns tonight.

Lots of chickpeas around Kilcummin area. The land around Charters looks just gorgeous. Green and lush. All the little dams are full which is nice to see compared to the last time we came through and it was smack bang in the middle of a drought.

Decided to stay at Rollingstone Big 4 (northern beaches pinnacles).
We stopped on the side of the road before charters towers and had some lunch. Amazing the difference it is to have everything at your fingertips.

We arrived at big 4 at 4.30 and was sitting down enjoying a drink within 20mins. Awning and all.

On to cairns tomorrow!

Just left the beautiful Adels grove, where co-indecently we had a drink with Pete Frith and Roger and Di Lyne. Jan was cooking their tea. Drove on the Savannah Way to Doomagee and did a drive through and we are now on our way to Hells Gate. Meaghans birthday today and she's ordered pizza , yogis syrup dumplings with cream n custard! Not bad for a bush camp feed. I've bought a packet choc cake and directions say mix on low for 3 mins then on high. I figure, I'll be low speed and Jodie can be high speed!!!!!! Hahaha.
