Heading off again

Well here we go again.  Hitching up the van and pointing the bonnet south down the Stuart Highway.

The plans are to get away from the Wet season reasonably quickly and head off to cooler and drier climes. The schedule as far as we have sketched it out will be

1) Daly Waters - we love this pub and we'll stay there for our first night.

2) Davenport Ranges NP - We'll stop at the old Policeman's water hole out in this NP near Tennant Creek.

3) Alice Springs - We have friends here to visit and we also want to see some of the few things we have missed out on in the past.

4) Curtin Springs - just a place to stop out on the way to Ayers Rock. We will leave the van here and head off solo to . . . . 

5) Warburton - A town on the Great Central Road where our daughter lives and works. We'll catch up with Laura and see a few things around there too.

6) Lake Eyre - This is filling right now so we will head down the Oddnadatta Track and stop off at William Creek where we will book a flight over the lake. 

7) Eyre Peninsula - Lots to see around here!

8) Nullarbor - We'll head across the bottom and into WA.

9) WA - from the bottom of WA we will then drift north to spend the Dry season in the Kimberley. We hope to catch up on things like the swimming with whale sharks and taking the flight out to the horizontal waterfalls.

We set off on Saturday 7th Feb - we can't wait!
