Day 77 - At the Bungle Bungle Camp Site

From the title you will gather we have not driven into the Bungle Bungles.  It was a well considered and frustrating decision, but we were sold on not going when the guy next door had to change his flat tyre.  It is a lovely day today, temperature currently in the high twenties but destined for 33 degrees later in the day, and there is a pleasant breeze blowing.  The sky is as blue as blue and there are only a few wispy clouds.

Rather than have nothing to report we have gathered a collection of photos from around the camp site. Most importantly, this is a seasonal camp, dry season that is.  Come the approach of the wet season the camp is packed up and removed back to Kununurra.  This probably explains the simplicity of the place. Water though they may, they have difficulty making the grass grow so the place is dusty.  It is quiet and peaceful too, once the movers and shakers have taken off to move and shake their way to the Bungles.

The caravan park is within the Mabel Downs cattle station and we came across a friendly local at Spring Creek, which is quite near to our van site.
