Camped By The Creek


SUNDAY 30 JUNE 2019

A bit weary from the walk/climb into and out of Bell Gorge and as we only had a 2 hour drive we just couldn’t be bothered getting out of bed this morning.

Eventually Larry got out and made the Nesprosso’s and we sat in bed consuming these before dragging our butts out of the warmth. Slow pack up even though we didn’t have to do much and off we went again back onto the GRR and off again at the turn off to Mt Hart. Pleasantly surprised with the facilities and semi grass camping area and a friendly camp host advised what the go was and she turned off a sprinkler as we were eyeing off a site that backed onto the creek so here we are at our last place on the Gibb.

We had soup and toasted sandwiches for lunch. To quote someone from 3 years ago “what can’t that Weber do”. The toasted sandwiches today (but it probably would do the soup as well).  After that we couldn’t be bothered going anywhere and it was so nice to just sit and relax overlooking the creek so we just sat in our chairs with a cup of tea and read our books for a while.



Eventually we finished our chapters and so headed out to a water hole about 4kms away (Barker’s Pool) but it was hard to actually get in to the water from the steep banks so we gave up the idea of a swim and went back to the bar and Larry had a couple of beers (perhaps the reason he was so easily dissuaded from swimming).  We bought an hour’s worth of internet and found out the Eagles had won yesterday and caught up with emails etc.

Back to the van and sitting in the early evening shade next to the creek enjoying our sometimes serenity. Not really anything else to report as it was a casual day and we will be doing the exploring of Mt Hart tomorrow.  Any easy dinner of leftover Honey Mustard Chicken (frozen from Munurra campsite) and rice from last night.
