Days 151 to 157

It is a week since I posted anything so this is an overdue update.

We have basically been running for home with some long days’ driving, almost all on bitumen, to get to where we can relax a little ready for the final leg home. We drove over 3500km from Kununurra to Bourke without unhitching the van and with few stops to admire the scenery, mainly because we have previously travelled almost all these roads before, almost half of them during our current trip - but also partly because it was so hot..

From the Barkly Homestead Roadhouse, we headed east with overnight stops in Cloncurry, Longreach, Windorah and Thargomindah before settling for a few days at one of our favourite camps: the Kidman Camp in Northy (local nickname for North Bourke). It is about 6 clicks from Bourke proper, but is a bit of an oasis in the desert, backing onto the Darling River and well isolated from Bourke’s notorious aboriginal problems.

Until we were about 100km from Northy, it was HOT all the way – low to mid-40s all day and only down to about 30 overnight.  It was uncomfortable outside the air-conditioned car and van so we had relatively few stops to look around the roadside environs.  That is not to say that there was nothing to see, but a lot of the time, we were driving through flat, dry plains with very little in the way of bushes or trees.  There were wooded areas of course, but they tended to be rather sparse and certainly too hot to explore for more than a few minutes at a time.

After Camooweal (where we had been a couple of months earlier), it was Mt Isa, ugly as always, and Cloncurry, both of which we have visited a couple of times or more on previous trips.  The Matilda Highway got us to outback Winton where we want to come back (at least to revisit the Bladensberg National Park) and on to Longreach.  We have never liked Longreach much, drowned as it has usually been with grey nomads having their all-day happy hours.  It wasn’t so bad this time and maybe we should return to check out its famed attractions, but it is expensive (filling our gas tank cost at least 50% more than anywhere else – but if there is nowhere else to go……!)

The next day (Tuesday) was more interesting, mostly on new roads for us.  It was in the mid-40s again all day so when we arrived at Stonehenge (in Queensland, not the UK), we decided to stop for a coldie at the quaint little pub there.  Chatting to the guy running the place was fascinating and led to us visiting the Information Centre across the road.  Stonehenge was one of three places where the Australian-invented OTH radar was set up – the others were Alice Springs and Laverton in WA.  OTH is ‘Over The Horizon’ and enables surveillance out to something like 6000km – enough to have seen Japan during WWII and it could have tracked MH370 if only it had been turned on at the time! It was able to detect some rocket launches in northern China and although it is not operational at present, it is likely to get increased usage for non-defence purposes in the future: border protection for example.  We spoke to one of the contractors who has worked on the project since its inception and it really was a most interesting story.  His wife runs the Information Centre and was also a mine of information as well as a great advocate for the region.  Definitely want to go back when it is a little cooler.

She had suggested that we call in at the Swanvale Jumpup lookout just off the road as we went south. Worth a visit with 30 or 40 km views to the north, west and south – and with a storm brewing in the middle of it all. We camped at Windorah and that is probably also worth another visit in cooler weather. Surprisingly, we got a little rain overnight, but with precious little temperature relief and it was as hot, windy and dusty as ever next morning.

We went on through Quilpie (not sure if we have visited it before – possibly, but we didn’t recognise anything there) and then to Thargomindah, including about 30km of gravel – wonderful names aren’t they?  This was all Channel Country but alas, I still never saw a Letterwing Kite – another good reason to go back again.  There were a few places around there that looked interesting – Eulo being one of them, on the way to Cunnamulla.  This whole area beckons for a more thorough exploration when the temperature is in the 20s rather than the 40s.  Then it was on to North Bourke for a few days’ relaxation before the final push for home. About 100km out of Bourke, the clouds started to build and the temperature dropped from 43 to 17 degrees within about 20 clicks.  It started to rain and we needed our raincoats on while setting up our camp. We got a bit more rain over the next couple of days, but not enough to make us change any of our plans.

One notable feature of the last few days was the number of emus we have seen. Most seem to be teenagers – not quite full-size, and obviously, many haven’t yet learned how to survive the motor car – and they can’t learn it now. Road kill has been horrendous – lots of kangaroos, but even more emus - hundreds of them. I am not sure that either species is quite endangered yet – I counted over 110 emus and 40 roos on the Northy Oval on Friday – and we must have seen many hundreds of each over the last 1000km.  I also saw more than 50 red-rumped parrots on the Oval as well as a few other species so it is a very popular avian retreat when footy is not being played on it.

We have booked 4 nights at the Kidman Camp and have used the time profitably so far.  We have done a lot of cleaning on the van – washed everything except the roof outside the van and we have even washed the floors inside and removed a few kilos of dust from all over the place.  We have done quite a bit of ‘business’ in preparation for arriving home and even caught up a little with our blogs.  I have been down to the river a few times and explored the birds along the roadside and around a nearby swamp.  The caravan park is teeming with birds, all enjoying the blossom in the many great trees throughout the park.

We caught the free bus into the Bourke Bowling Club for dinner on Friday night – one of the worst meals we have had on the trip and mine was not even what I ordered anyway!  We came home on the bus again and enjoyed our home-brewed tea and coffee and home-cooked fruit cake a lot more than the Club meal.

We are now almost to the end of our wonderful trip.  I am already looking forward to our next trip – and we have already compiled a list of about 8-10 roads we want to travel and places we want to visit or revisit. Life is so short and I regret that we have left it so long to really get out and make the most of our opportunities, particularly our time in our lovely mobile cubbyhouse.

Perhaps only one (or two) more posts to this blog – although I may put up a few more photos from the trip.
