Heading to WA

Post by Swisslulu »

Our first night of this trip and we are at Calliope River free camp. Heading west towards Emerald today with our original plan being to travel via Longreach. However the road between Barcaldine and Longreach is closed due to water over the road. We may have to head north to Charters Towers then west. Will check at Emerald Info Centre when we get there.

Anyone who is interested can follow our trip at https://nussbaumerweb.wordpress.com/[im ... cf3937.jpg[/img]Image

Lesley,
Queensland certainly is a land of contrasts.
The river at Calliope looks pretty low; and you can't get to Longreach because of water over the road! :o
Regards & God bless,
Ray

Apparently the road to Longreach is now open, Ray. It was just surface water from rain over the last couple of days.

Have a great trip you two, are you going to go to Mt Augustus? It is beautiful and the photo opportunities for Erich :)

Dot, we will certainly be doing the central part of WA after the cruise and Mt Augustus is on the list.

Lesley may I ask what cruise you are going on? Departure date?
I have a friend going on one which I think leaves from Perth.

Ask for a 2nd opinion Bruce :)
That is just cruel Dottie, bad enough the once without a repeat performance for someone else's viewing pleasure :o
