Today was our last day at vryila point as we are packing up tomorrow to make our way down the old telegraph track. I had promised everyone pancakes, purely because milk was low and we couldn't afford to waste it on cereal! Getting comfortable with the camp cooking and cooked them over the fireplace, tasted awesome. After our feast and coffee we headed off for an explore of the south end of vrilya point. It was a picturesque drive and different from the north and...

Awoke really wanting a shower!!! But with no fresh water and even being out of drinking water, now using Rod and Angie's, couldn't possibly use it for showering even though they said to. Anyway had to get over that and instead had breaky. Angie and l then placed out an exercise circuit using a camp oven lid at one station and a small step at the other.

Today was another fantastic day!! I know it sounds corny, but it is just getting better each day and nothing is ever the same!

It must have been leaking for a whil...

The view out at the ocean was amazing and the tide was out quite a bit. We walked out to see heaps of hermit crabs scattering around. Girls thought this was really cool and were a bit timid about them biting!!! Once they got over that they enjoyed it. After breaky, and due to last...

We had everything packed up ready to head off at 9am. The Germans came down to camp to say goodbye which was sad...would loved for them to come to Vrilya point with us all. We drove to Bamaga to do s last stock up of food and fill the diesel up. Drove to cross the Jardine River by ferry again, Marty cursed the corrugated road!! Then another 28kms later we veered off to the right towards Vrilya Point. The road was not too bad, slightly corrugated until we got to ...
