The run Home...

We broke camp at Beresford, and continued down the track.  






We passed through Marree, …...we've been to Marree a couple of times before.....If you have ever been to Marree...more than once….you pass right through!



On the way out of town we caught up with a road train carting cattle......we give him a fair bit of room.....







We stayed the night at the Leigh Creek Caravan Park, a chance to top up the water supply, refuel the vehicle and have a general tidy up.

We departed Leigh Creek and headed south.   The weather report for South Australia was to say the very least....grim.   Predicted strong wind, rain and with the SES offering free sandbags for anyone who wanted them, I decided that home was probably the best option.   There was one bright side to the weather..

So after a long day on the road we free camped just east of Tailem Bend, striking distance from home.    Even on the roadside the weather was rough, strong wind, rain, and after the weather of the previous 3 weeks...bloody cold!



We woke to a blustery, wet morning, and steered the rig towards Hamilton, as the day progressed the weather deteriorated, and we arrive back home, with just sufficient time to unpack the main stuff from the van.....before the heavens opened...


The trip....6915 km, 27 days, $2108 in fuel, a shed load of photos, camels, lizards, cows, dingos, horses, rocks, scrub, free camps, desert racers, new places, met some great people and generally had a great time....

We will probably do something similar again......stay tuned
