Camp Sights and Round Rocky

---

Today was a fix-it day for Barry, starting with getting the gas bottle filled before we stray into the more remote areas. He also decided to go ahead and get the new electric cables put into the ute so, hopefully, the rear battery will accept the full charge from the front one now, without any loss. He also collected the Lugs for the fridge, which had finally arrived. With luck we are all set to continue our journey without having any more electrical or repair worries (probably expecting too much but one can dream!)



I spent the day catching up on some of my Travel Blog and getting a few days uploaded. It gets behind so quickly and I’m often tired after a big day out, when of course there’s lots to relate. I’ll just keep plodding on. It’s becoming more important to me as we have seen so much and had so many new experiences that things are starting to get mixed up. Having the blog helps me keep them in sorted in my mind and we’ll be able to look back on it in the future.

Feeding Time at Dusk
Everyone comes down to feed in the paddock next to the Caravan Park. You can see a couple of Sulphur-Crested Cockatoos, three kangaroos and a Straw-Necked Ibis (at the back).

Bird Bath Time
Some Rainbow Lorikeets are watched by a Straw Necked Ibis, who soon jumped up there himself.

A Blue Information Breed Bull
Even the Tourist Information Centre had a bull!

A Braford Bull Statue, Rockhampton
This breed of cattle is a cross between a Brahman and a Hereford. It is good in Australia because it is drought and tick resistant.

A Charbray Bull Statue, Rockhampton
They are a cross between a Brahman cow and a Charolais bull, from 1950s USA and are heat tolerant.
