Plans have been a bit disrupted. The road is closed due to flooding! Stuck in Fitzroy crossing for at least the night.

Cleo’s holiday
While we are away sweating in the desert, Cleo is having her own holiday of sorts in a local Kerikeri catery where she gets to bark at birds and mingle with other cats. We get the odd update thru letting us know how she is doing. Today we even got a photo!
We miss you Cleo!
Chris & Danielle
Day 11 – Katherine to Kununarra
Morning all from Kununarra at 6.21am where the sun and heat are out in full swing and the grasshoppers are annoying already!
The plan for day 12 – 1k+ kms!
Day 10 – Darwin to Katherine
Morning all
Yesterday we had a look around Darwin before heading back to Katherine.
Day 9 – Katherine to Darwin
Evening all,
Coming to you this evening from the top of the country, where it is not too hot and we are enjoyed a cold drink out in the evening breeze.
Day 8 – Threeways to Katherine
Hi all,
Have made it today to Katherine, which is 300km south of Darwin.
This morning we left Threeways (not the Crossroads, as I referred to it as yesterday) and made our way quickly north through Elliot, Newcastle waters & Daly Waters.
Another long leg – Day 8
Day 7 – Alice Springs to the Crossroads
Evening all
Coming to you tonight from Threeways, which is where the highway from Queensland meets the Stuart Highway.
As promised, some photos taken of Alice Springs. Very keen to return one day soon!
Mighty Problems
Over the last few days one of our campervans has had a warning light flash up, the vehicle then looses power and we have to pullover and restart the vehicle to get going again. This same vehicle also had the main ‘house’ door fail in a locked state. This happened on our first night in Alice Springs.
We called the help line at 9 pm and we’re asked to call back at 8am the next day which we did so. This was 8am new years eve. Mighty campers advised they would be driving a replacement vehicle up to us from Adelaide!
New years day (today) we have split up with Chris, Danielle and Gary heading north and the rest of the group remaining in Alice. By the time this post is online the replacement camper should have arrived and the others should be on the road. We don’t know quite when we will be back in convoy…
