Bill and I kicked off the day with a weights session (shoulders and triceps today) and then we packed up and headed 170 ish km’s to the Munurru campground on the King Edward River. We stopped at Drysdale Station where Bill was stoked to find toothbrushes for sale. He had accidently left his toiletries bag at El Questro. The road was not superb and it got worse for the last 100 km with some nasty patches of corrugations – one lot which pushed both the Ranger and the Landcruiser out towards the edge of the road. The campground made up for it though. My favourite so far, with the King Edward River being a fantastic swimming hole. It was really beautiful, and the water so clear and refreshing. The usual setting up of camp was followed quickly with a swim. Snags and veg cooked over the campfire for tea. Dad is doing all the campfire cooking on this trip and is doing a bang up job of it.
