Tuesday 18/09/2012 Day 86: Devils Marbles to Avon Downs.
It was warm overnight with a soft
orange glow to the south from the bush fires. We woke up early and prepared to
leave when the resident dingo turned up looking for scraps. We packed up and
headed off to Tennant Creek. We topped the fuel up and headed to the right hand
turn home. We headed along the Barkly Hwy and topped up again at the Barkly
Homestead fuel was 13cents higher than last time at $1.999c/ltr. We arrived at
Avon Downs with 4 vans already parked at 14:15. It is hot 35 degrees C at
17:00.
