Julia Creek

5th May 2025

Distance: 3.6 Km

Fuel: 25 L

A Rest Day

After my morning shower I hand washed yesterday’s clothes plus my towel and hung them on the line even dripping wet I suspected they would be dry by midday (and they were).

After a lazy breakfast drove into town to get fuel and have a look around. Julia Creek’s population is about 550 so it is not a big town. Probably its main feature is the Wine Glass water tower at one end of the town and a windmill at the other.  While I was buying fuel I couldn’t resist a crumbed sausage!

After getting back t0 the caravan park had a cup of tea then went for a walk (and remembered to take a water bottle with me).

About midday decided to set up the car’s awning, while I was setting it up, I remembered the side awning that had arrived with it. I had never even taken it out of its bag never mind set it up. Actually it isn’t bad, my only complaint is that it is two metres wide whereas the awning is 2.5 m. The whole lot cost less than $200 so can’t complain.

It was nice sitting in the shade reading, had a couple of beers and a cup of tea – very restful.
