This is a long blog as we have been out of range.
On the way from to Tennant creek we passed the tropic of Capricorn and then the most central pub at Ti tree had lunch at Wycliffe Wells a UFO park with all these little" green men" .
We saw The Devils Marbles just an amazing sight! even a wild dingo to greet us!
At Tennant Creek we stopped the night and Jimmy the Bush Tucker Man entertained us and we had Billy tea and bush tucker Damper. Now for Don's contribution,
Jimmy's an old bushman
Born and bred at Tennant Creek
He does a poem and cook show,
Every evening of the week.
Bush tucker and his poems
are the things he does so well,
special tea and bush cooked damper,
the plants he uses he'll try to sell.
His oven is an old tree trunk,
with billy and camp oven,
he uses all the local plants ,
and the taste is just like heaven.
So with smoky eyes and hair,
Clothes smelling of lemon grass.
We enjoyed our night with Jimmy,
And hope his show will last and last!!!!!
The next day we left early and continued to the famous Daly Waters Pub what a wonderful place. We got the last few powered sights, there must have been 200 vans there. Of course we went and had a beer and booked for the obligatory Beef and Barra dinner the most fantastic night was had with entertainment, Chilli was just fab with his songs and yarns and poems a constant laugh !!!!!
Now we are in Katherine and the weather is hot how things change in 400ks Summer gear is out Officially,
