Cape York Trip 2008

This blog is going to be used to track the build up of our new 200 series Landcruiser and our preparation for our actual trip from Adelaide to Cairns, up to Cape York "The Tip" and finally back home to Adelaide.

We are leaving on 26th June 2008 and returning on the 27th July 2008

Day 11 - Weipa

We spent the day around Weipa township.  Being a Sunday, it was very quiet around the place.  Woolworths wasn't even open!

Leticia has had an earache since she got to Cairns so we tried the doctor but can't see him until tomorrow.  We forgot to latch down the solar panel on the camper and broke off a few pop-rivets yesterday so we went to the hardware and bought a rivet gun and rivets to repair it. All ok now.

James and I went for a fish with a fellow and his son who are camping near us - they caught a Sooty Grunter but we only managed nibbles and not much.  There was heaps of fish jumping in the water but without a boat we couldn't get near them
