Day 87: Avon Downs to Kynuna Roadhouse Caravan Park.

Wednesday 19/09/2012 Day 87: Avon Downs to Kynuna Roadhouse Caravan Park.

The birds were knocking on the door this morning for breakfast. We were up early 07:23 (ACST) and off towards QLD. We found the road-works before the border, had got bigger than 12 weeks ago! Amanda enjoyed driving. We passed through Camooweal had a driver change at the David Hall Rest Area and stopped for fuel at Mt Isa. We continued on the Barkly Hwy onto Cloncurry where we had lunch in the same park near woollies. It was bloody hot 37 degrees C. We continued on the Flinders Hwy, turned into the Landsborough Hwy and had the final driver change at McKinlay. We arrived at Kynuna Roadhouse at 16:10 (AEST)  The caravan park here is the cheapest we have been at that has all the amenities; laundry, water, electricity, showers, toilet, dump point and level sites for only $15 for 2 adults & 2 children. The 2 resident wild brolgas are free.
