Queensland was graced with our presence just after mid-morning as we crossed the border and made it into sleepy Camooweal.<span><span>We grabbed a shower at the local caravan park and there was a cafe at the general store that served up some tasty treats.

Next stop was Mount Isa which was, as expected, a big place but not exactly a destination you would spend your holidays in.<span> After picking up supplies we headed to a free camp that was exactly halfway between Mt Isa and Cloncurry.

It was a picturesque spot set among very green bushland and rolling hills and in fact the entire drive to this point was quite unexpected; I envisaged flat and dry plains but on the contrary it was quite the opposite and a lovely stretch of country.
