8th Windorah – Diamatina National Park



Set of on our way 8:00am after Kim and Bryan filled up with ice for there esky. We walked around town and took some photos then we headed out of town travel further north
The country out of town was very green lots of birds and plenty of water we saw a (white necked heron).
We came across J.C. Ruins hotel of course we had to pull in and take some shots. The day was nice but a cold breeze blowing.






Along the way we came across these native wells and they were a hole in the ground full of water with rocks around the top.


Finally we came across Mt Henderson and found a sigh which pointed out the hole through it.














We decided to have a short break at 10:15am and we pick up some firewood for tonight. The country changed again and now there are a lot of sand dunes around.
There was a lot of cattle on the way and even two donkeys on the side of the road.
Now it is very sandy country and we are only about 50ks from Diamantina Lakes.

Oh no Bryan's got a squeak in his wheel so we have to stop and sort that out so we have to have some lunch while we are waiting to sort that out. Back on the road to find a place to stay for the night. Gum hole sounds the place for us.


We went and watch the sunset at Hunter's gorge and it was really nice while we were waiting we had a few drinks and some nibbles.
Sat around a fire for a short while had good nights sleep as it was really quite no noise around at all.
