Days 13 & 14
We travelled from Mutee Heads to Musgrave station. Was quite wet and all of our cars and campers were a deep red colour. We had lunch at Bramwell Station in the rain and disposed of our Bananas as there is a checkpoint where they have to be dumped. I gave ours to the roadhouse to make banana cakes. We then ended up at musgrave station for the night.
We had tea at musgrave and the men who ordered the $30 stk had nearly half a beast on their plate!!!! Was massive!! Had a nice hot shower and decided to have a cruisy morning the next day.
Woke up this morning around 7.30. Most of us had bacon and eggs for breaky. We FINALLY had dry clothes after three days of hanging out in very moist weather. Believe me. When you hand wash you do your best to get them dry and to not let them get musty and smelly!!
The boys filled our campers with water and washed our campers and cars down. Got some fuel and headed to Cape Melville. The track in might of been only a couple of hundred k's. but the last 40 took FOREVVVVEEERRRRR!!!!! Yoges and I got bogged at one creek crossing and Karl towed is out. The mud was swampy and smelly. Ewwww. 😫
We crossed another creek to get to the beach. Luckily we ran into some other campers who told us it was ok to cross as none of us were volunteering to walk it. Crocs everywhere up here!
We came across some unbranded cattle in our travels. The country is so diverse through here. Can be swampy then grassy then lots of trees. Mountains were framing us the last few k's which were beautiful.
After a 'where should we put the camper?' Heated discussion between Yoges and I, we decided on a good spot. Unfortunately the wind got up at one stage and has snapped part of Karls awning. Poor buggars. WikiCamps tells us it can get quite windy here. But we wanted to be away from any water so we don't find any mud lizards 🐊 in our camp!!!! The
