Birdsville and Back.
« on: August 04, 2013, 09:58:55 am »
Well we left this morning and are in our first camp tonight. It isn't cold thank goodness. I am being persuaded to have a shower soon. I will be brave.
We had a good run today. I will be very intermittent with my forum use for the next couple of weeks. This camp is right near a mobile tower so I am doing well for 3G.


Just after we set out.

Fog a 100 km out of Perth.

Camp, night one.

The rocket boiling water for coffee.

The choofer getting a workout for when it cools down tonight.

Cookie I am going to enjoy this trip very much. I am so happy you are doing it and twice as happy that it isn't me. LOL!

You are very brave my friend.
