Borrolloola/King Ash Bay:
We have been eating Cherrapin (a prawn on steroids), Barramundi, and Queen fish, at almost evry meal.
The small Barra in the photos weighed 9Lbs, the larger 27Lbs.
The gulf country is very remote and frontier type of life, we are camped at the Borrolloola boat ramp with Julien, Marie & George (Juliens brother).

The video of Blue "Pop up Dog", is the result of him poping up every time we go over a cattle grid, and there are many of them, about every 40k (thats the size of an average paddock). He goes to sleep after about 30k, then vrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt, a Bloody Crossing wakes him up and he scans the horizon to see what it was.

Daly Waters at the Daly Waters pub! Spent a week at the C/P at the pub, waiting for the mail to catch up with us. Great people and a good camp, $14, per night and the 7th night free. Publican Lindsay, entertainer "Chilli", George the handy man and Steve the park co-ordinator and all the staff made us very welcom. Most people arrived from about 9.00am, leaving 7.00am next day so we were almost locals after 3 days. If your up this way chill out and spend a couple of days.

Travelled from Alice Springs via Tennent Creek, saw the Devils Marbles (100s of them) and its a sacred site for men. Did some shopping at Tennent Creek, a much cleaner town than last time I was here!
Stayed at a free camp at the Pebbles, 11K Nth of Tennent Creek, good camp, its a sacred womens site.

The country side is lush and water in the holes, it looks great. On to "The 3 Ways" then to Daly Waters.

These are photos taken from ANZAC Hill Alice Springs.
Leaving Alice Springs toady, heading for Taylor Creek, about 300K north. No. 28 in Camps 6! Had a great stay in Alice, last time I was here the Tod River was full of Aborigines from missions, all drunk and leaving Coolabah cask bladders all over the place, with no respect for themselves or others. Now the river is clean, the people are sober, and all seem to be much healthies and have a purpose and dignity. I also saw this last year at Kathrin and other place, it seems to be in responce to the tough new liquor laws set up some years ago. It is so refreshing to see something that the government got right, I am very excited for the future of these areas of central Australia.
