Day 13
Left Barkly Homestead around 9 for the run up the Tablelands 'H'way' , a mostly one lane road, but sealed and a good surface. We were lucky when we met 3 road trains together that we were at a floodway which gave us room to move off the road. Apart from that, we dodged a few cows, and grey nomads and arrived at our destination in good order. We stopped for lunch at a rest area where RM was able to help a young family whose boat trailer had broken. Many mechanics and bits and bobs from the grey nomads at the stop later, they were able to make it here to Cape Crawford. Heartbreak Hotel has possibilities but they could learn a bit from Barkly Homestead about maintaining a good caravan park. However, it is attractive, lovely shady tress and plenty of room. Lovely warm weather so had drinks with Barbara and Richard, and Sienna their dog and then a BBQ. All outside in the dark. No 3G phone connection. Elle thinks she is living in a moving 'dogpark' with all the new friends to meet and greet!
