Not been a good day today - we left Newman intending to stay at Gascoyne River (Middle) - this was a free camp that had been recommended to us by several people. Well the navigator (namely me) put in the wrong co-ordinates and we were 44 kms passed it before we realised - but in my defense we did not see any signs pointing to it either. We did come across Gascoyne River (South) which was another free camp but it was very dusty and quite close to the road. Anyway we decided we would keep going and head towards another camp which was the other side of Meekatharra - big mistake - it was just a layby and again very dusty. So we have finished up in the caravan park - if you can call it that - in Meekatharra. It is a dust bowl and on each of every two sites only one power socket works. Fortunately it is not busy and we are only here overnight.
Forgot to mention in yesterdays Blog - on our way out of Tom Price we saw our first Dingo on this trip. It was on the hill above the roadside but moved to quickly for us to get a photograph. They are a wonderful looking animal.
