Wednesday 21 July-At Tennant Creek, with great online access, so can post a few pictures of the Katherine Gorge walk, rellies in Darwin, and subsequent travels south.
Daly Waters barbeque lived up to expectations. We both agreed that crackers, cheese, and soup will be fine for tonight!
Cooler today, 59F when we started, 71F when we stopped. Lovely bush country to ride through today. It went from many, high, thin trees, very closely spaced, to a few high trees interspersed with essentially high bushes and spinifix, to more open savannah. Petrol stops available every 100 kms or so. Tomorrow, as we turn due east, they are every 200 Kms or so. Strong crosswind today, which will be a headwind tomorrow. Thank goodness for large (22L) petrol tanks. Speaking of fuel it was $7.00 a gallon today. Saw lots more motorcycles today, 12, which is 3 times the total we had seen previously.
