1100 (686 km) Left for Mungo National Park - 110km NE of Mildura, in NSW. Let some air out of the tyres. 85 km of dirt road with muddy patches. Went into 4WD a few times.
1300 (804 km) Arrived at Mungo National Park - a World Heritage area. So happened it was the NAIDOC week so there were some activities and guided tours. Had sandwiches for lunch.
1355 (814 km) Went to start of tour -Wall of China, a crescent of ancient dried up sand dune shores of Lake Willandra where ancient human remains (40,000 years old) were discovered. Latrobe University archaeologist took us through the sites to see hearths from thousands of years ago. Fascinating how rock tools, bone remnants are being exposed all the time with the rains and winds - so easy to walk pass them unless they are pointed out.
1550 (814 km) Left Wall of China.
