We drove of from Reid River to Charters Towers where we set up in a Caravan Park. The first thing I did was have a nice long shower and took a 2 hour nap (after our little self sufficient camping, without enough water for a shower in the morning!). I didn't sleep very well last night. I was up every hour making sure that the battery was holding charge for our fridge that
did work. Luckily I actually caught it when it failed so we had to move the fride onto the jumper pack to keep it going for the night (thanks Scott for that handy tip, it saved about $50 in food!)
Anyway we also had a little look around...

We also saw our first wild Budgies but i wasn't quick enough with the camera. They were really pretty though!
