Day 176 Saturday 3rd August 2013; Location - Mary Pool

James was out of bed by 6.30am and Rena and I were not to far behind him.

All packed up and on the road, todays destination is The Bungle Bungles.

We stopped for fuel at Halls Creek. WOW another town that has grown alot since the last time we were over this way.

Back on the road, next stop the entry to the to Bungle Bungles. James unloaded the firewood as you are not allowed to take it in to the park, and Rena and I read the information signs about the park. Nice new signage and toilet.

We then took Spring Creek Track in to The Bungle Bungles. About half way along the track Rena got car sick. So a quick stop to clean her and the car up, and give her some fresh air.

We got to the visitor centre, but decided to head straight for camp and set up as we had paid for the camp online alreayd.

We lucked in with my choice of campsite, nice big spot with a nice shade tree to set up next to and provide shade for the camper. Some spots do not have any shade at all, or you are sharing your tent peg spaces with your neighbours.

As luck would be on Rena's side, 4 girls were camped next to us ranging in age from 4 to 7. So we didnt see much of Rena that afternoon, she got to play with some girls.  We also found out what to buy Rena for her birthday, the other 4 year old had the same pillow pet as Rena, but she also had a pony on a stick which Rena fell in love with (actually had trouble getting Rena to give it back).

Rena still has a long way to go when it comes to sharing her toys. But she has improved heaps since being on the road. I think she is going to be a leader in what ever she chosing to do, she natually leads the group, or tells them what to do. (Gets upset too if they dont do as she wants, this she will have to overcome).

As there is bore water here, we all got the chance to have a really nice long shower tonight (well our 1 bucket shower). Rena got to have a really big bath. It was really nice to be clean and free of red dust even if it did only last for 10 minutes before getting dusty again.
