Day 421: Ivanhoe Crossing – Spring Creek Rest Area

Monday, 28 July 2014                                                                                                289.2kms

We left camp at 10.10am and headed into Kununurra to collect our mail which was Elokin and Hendrix’s school work for the next 4 weeks. Nath also gave the car and van a much needed wash and they both came out sparkling. We purchased our fuel at the Gull on the east side of town as it is cheaper than the 3 in town.

We had forgotten that we needed to book our camping at Purnululu National Park as we left town, so we made a stop at the Lions Club park at the base of the spillway for me to book our camp and also our helicopter flight. There was a bobcat at the base of the spillway, which really gave a perception of just how big the spillway is.
