Wed 27 Jul 2011 Tennant Creek to Mataranka

0915 (6059 km) Breakfast of toast. Left Tennant Creek. Filled up.
1200 (6315 km) Elliot.
1345 (6470 km) Daly Waters. Lunch of sandwiches and rolls. Had a look at the pub. It had collections of memorabilia such as caps, t-shirts, underwear, bras and other personal items. The collections were contributed by visitors.
1445 (6480 km) Filled up.
1630 (6650 km) Mataranka. Site 32. Quickly set up and got changed for swim.
1700 (6654 km) Bitter Springs. It was nice and warm - a constant 34 deg. The water was very clear and we went in with snorkel, goggles, flippers and surf boards. Tied our footwear to the boards and drifted down the creek. Saw fish and a long-necked turtle-just like Tickles! Walked back on the track and floated down the creek again! The water was warmer than the air.
1850 (6656 km) Dinner of spaghetti bolognaise.
