(Finke River, near Glen Helen)
It is still overcast and cold and oh, the wind! If it wasn't for a full bladder at 0800hrs, I would have slept half the day.
Col had the busiest day, rotating the wheels on the car and constantly tending to the fire. I walked about 2km back to the road to ring mum from a payphone at Glen Helen. I needed to confirm that they were meeting us there tomorow. Yes, at 0930hrs. Yay!!
Other than that I spent the entire day curled up on my camp chair as close to the fire as possible. The wind was bitter. Scarf, beanie, fire and a good book all day, overlooking the Finke River and Mt Sonder.
Many birds came in the evening. Budgerigars, cockatiels, magpies, piwis and a wedgetailed eagle.
Jordan and Jack had fun climbing trees, playing forts and floating things down the river.
I can't wait to see mum and dad tomorow!
Back to my book by the fire.
