DAY 28 – A DAY IN CROYDON

Well we have been “out bush” in the exploration “fly” camp for 4 days now. When we drove into camp (2 ½ hours out of Georgetown) we were pleasantly surprised as the camp set-up is SO much better than what we expected. Although only temporary, thankfully the camp has a shower, kitchen, generator (powering lights, pump, fridge & freezer) and is based around a picturesque dam seeming with some classic Australian wildlife, like brolgas, emus, kangaroos and a very timid razorback. It is quite remote out here and we are on a cattle station running 20,000 cattle covering about 1 million acres.

Croydon is a very old Gold town, with lots of historic sites to see but not much to do. So we have parked up at “Café Croydon” and thought we would write a quick entry while we munched on our steak sandwiches.

We would like to say a big HAPPY 60th BIRTHDAY to Ian Robbo (for the 28th Sept). We will be thinking of you and hope you have a fabulous day! Oh and we will have a rum and coke for you!

We can’t forget Dougie’s birthday either, HAPPY BIRTHDAY Dougie for the 29th Sept! Only 2 more years till the big 30......
