The Station Stay is on Mabel Downs a large cattle station, 52 klms from Purnululu National Park. The conditions here are quite primitive (they have a captive audience). We are glad we have our own facilities, it's the most expensive place we have stayed at $50 per night, however the bush setting is nice and we are quite happy where our site is.
The flight was wonderful, just the two of us and a young pilot. Had great views of station country on our way to the Bungles. They rise 300m out of the desert and are 350 million years old, it is hard to comprehend the magnitude and size of them.
The colours and formations are hard to believe, it was certainly a great way to view them from the air. We did think about driving there today however it's a 53 klm dirt track to the visitors centre and then you head 20 klms north and 26 klms south and not in wonderful conditions gave it a miss.
Watched the Dockers last night, Tone was quite restrained not happy with the umpires!!!
Lovely cool breeze last night, no air conditioning which was very nice. Have had a relaxing day catching up on the blog.
Heading to Halls Creek, then Broome to see Peter & Penny, also Linda Butterly ex Wiluna for a couple of days.
Planning on staying at 80 Mile Beach and a few free camps along the way to Coral Bay, have booked into Coral Bay for a week from the 23 Aug, Viv & Pam will be there which will be great to see them again.
