West of Rabbit Flat – Larrawa Station Day 10

Sunday 12^th August 

 Well this morning we wanted to get an early start and we did 7:00am, it was still dark when we got up.  Just as we left camp the sun was creeping up in the east.  Pete had to burn his thongs as they were soiled.

We had a good run made it to the border by 9:00am.  When we got out of the car it was blowing a gale and very cold (I wish this wind would go). Everyone took photos and jumped back in their cars to go again.  

The road was still very good and lots of traffic going the other way, some had big vans behind them and travelling quite fast.

We could not believe it we arrived in Wolf Creek right on 10:00am what about that timing.  We had planned to stay there the night but after our walk and nearly getting blown away we all decided to move on.

Once in at Halls Creek the usual chaos getting fuel it is now 2:00pm, a quick visit to the visitors centre and the Jacobs, Kynoch & Farrugia’s headed north to the bungles and Budd’s headed south not sure where we would end up for the night.

About 150ks south we found a Larrawa station to spend the night.  Nice place the owner came and welcomed us and the other couple that arrived just before us.  She filled us in on the showers and a few walks they had on the property.  Once set up and after a quick shower we headed up to the sunset viewing are and that was fantastic.

We had dinner and at 7:30pm Paul decided it was time for bed what a long night and the rooster decided he was awake at 2:00am and crowed all night think he has his timing mixed up.
