17^thOctober 2012,

Departed Dilli Village and headed north to Eurong via the beach just after high tide. The sand was really soft and there were some water crossings. Pedro had no problems getting through to Eurong with the tyre pressures at 15psi. We headed inland to Lake Mackenzie via the Rainforest. We stopped along the way while the girls swung on some vines (reminded them when they swung on some vines near Rainbow Beach, many years ago). We had lunch at Lake Mackenzie and had a swim. Wow, what a beautiful lake. Left Lake Mackenzie and headed towards King Fisher bay. Half way to King Fisher Bay we met Benny and Georgie. They were unfortunately bogged in the sand (something was wrong with their 4WD system). Daniel finally got to use his recovery gear. We used the snatch trap to pull Benny’s KIA out and towed them to King Fisher Bay (CHOO CHOO!!!!). They are such a beautiful couple and we wish them luck in the future. Finally there was a little phone reception at King Fisher Bay, for us to make some phone calls. Angie called to say that they arrived at Dilli Village. We headed “home” to Dilli via Waddy’s Lake Lookout. We saw some Dingo pups on the way and Sasha wanted to take them home! It was great to finally catch up with Ange, Stef, Georgia and Olly.
