Mataranka to Borroloola

N: Mataranka was great there were peacocks and a thermal pool.

The peacocks wandered around and would eat out of your hand, and the thermal pool was at a perfect body temperature. After a swim and dinner we went to the bar to watch the Pies smash the Swans (good old Collingwood forever they now how to.... etc). The next day it was to hot to do much so we swam and did a 1.2km walk to “Stevie’s hole” (named after a local tour operator) were we swam.

The next day we drove to Borroloola, a fair drive.

After a while we stopped at Daly Waters which consisted of a pub, a house and a caravan park. Not long after we stopped at a roadhouse to get lunch, petrol and this was were we turned off onto the Carpentaria highway. Cape Crawford was our next stop and 200kms further was Borroloola, yay. We set up and went to the Pub for Dinner. the next day we went to King Ash Bay where we fished but to no avail, I was as sick as a Dog (can someone get me a bag?!).
