We had a fun drive back from Lawn Hill to Mt Isa - crossing a few substantial river crossings - the state of the road was mostly ok but some sections were heavily corrugated. We are now (29/7/06) in Mt Isa and will be for a few days to do washing, website updating (which takes a few hours), getting the car serviced, replenishing supplies as well as seeing the various sites of Mt Isa. I will check email and this site again on Monday if you have any comments you want to add to the bulletin board or emails to send. We are all having a great time, school work is going pretty well and the diaries are all up to date. This is our last stop in Queensland, from here it is on into Northern Territory taking the Plenty Highway down to Alice Springs - we think it is about 700km of dirt in the 850 km journey. It should take us about 3 days.
