Day 24 - 22062015 - Rest Day Derby - 0 km


Slept in till 6:30.  Got up and was going to do the washing, but every machine had queues so went for breakfast at the Bake My Day cafe.  You've heard about fast food? Well this was slow food.  Took forever to get our big breakfast.  When it came if was BIG and good.

Went back to the camp park and managed to get the washing in a machine.  We then went to see Subie and Helen who are leaving today and had offered to make us coffee at 8:00 with Sandy and Jennifer.  Had a good chin wag for a few hours.

 
Hung out the washing and went for a walk to get Joe another hat.  He lost one while crossing the Pentecost River near El Questro, bought another one and then lost it.  Got the hat and a new clothes line for me.  I had left my old one hanging between 2 trees at the Durak river crossing.  I'll get it next time I'm up here.

I went to the library and used their internet to update the blog.

We didn't have lunch because the breakfast was so big, but kicked back for the afternoon and read.  

Met another cyclist Luke from Belgium who is about to start doing the Gibb River Road but from Derby to Kununurra.  

Great sunsets up here, and we just caught it as it went down.

Went to the pub for tea.  Steak with blue cheese sauce. Yum.






Went back to the campsite and met with Luke, Sandy and Jennifer and we explained to him the best camps, where to get water, how to fight crocs etc.
