Day 19

Day 19 Sunday 6th May
Woke up to an overcast day but still pleasantly warm. Top temp today of around 28 degrees. On the road early once again (Rick has already gone!). We have to do the long drive out of Denham 139 Klms, before we get to the Highway. 1 Hour out to the H/way then 1 more hour to our first stop of the day WOORAMEL road house. Brenda cooked breakfast, had the usual tea and pee stop then underway again. By the way fuel there was $1.48 per litre.
This next part of the journey was horrific!! Never seen so many dead animals by the side of the road. Roo’s Sheep, goat’s, Emus, Cows, and a huge variety of squashed things that I could not tell what they were. Saw our first big Wedge tailed Eagle. What magnificent birds they are. Mind you the farmers don’t like them very much!!
We drove past Rick just outside Carnarvon, tooted , waved but kept going. Once again tea and Pee stop at MINILYA. Rick drove past tooted and waved but kept going. Off again still heading north and it’s getting warmer. Finally Reached Coral Bay hasn’t change much since last here except the price of a site. Last time here it cost $19 a night this time$30 per night, ah well that’s inflation for you!!!!
Our site is right on the road, very noisy late at night and early morning!
Happy hour again, this time Ricks pad! Dinner bed for some well earned sleep. Like I said it’s tough on the road!!
