We didn’t have far to travel today, so Tony let us off for an 11:00 start. Michael wakes up unwell, dizzy queasy. We all take our time packing and I worry about Michael.
Karen makes some scones on Tony’s fire and they were quite successful. Tony was particularly pleased. He tells me he ate them with jam and cream.
The track we are to take to Adel’s grove is marked as a 4wd only track and I may have to drive – I have not done any real 4wdriving. I go to see Tony and tell him that Michael is sick and that I may have to drive. He tells me not to worry, he will drive with me and keep an eye on me. Whew.
There are some nice walks around here (the river is very wide), so Greg, Dean and Tony set off to explore the area. Susan gives Michael some gastrolyte in case he is suffering from dehydration. Michael throws up and says he now feels a little better. He is able to drive.
The road is very good, better than the stony road we travelled where all the punctures occurred. Only a couple of sandy patches and a tricky river crossing. They are doing roadwork on it so a lot of it is really very good . It is surprising to see roadwork in the of nowhere when the other road would have more use.
Adel’s grove is very nice – we stay here for 4 nights.
5 river crossings today.
