We were woken very early by a group of people breaking camp, they were on a Kimberley outback tour being driven around in 4wd bus. After an easy pack we left the caravan park at 9am which is really good time for us. We were heading to Halls Creek to fuel up and try and find a few provisions. We managed to park up alongside a few other caravans and found the local IGA supermarket where the price of bread was ridiculously expensive...we found a bakers and still paid $4.50 for a small loaf of bread. Richard wanted some beer and once again we were in an area where its difficult to buy any kind of take away alcohol! After inquiring in the store we were directed to a small corner shop who only sold low/light beer at extortionate prices, only a pack of six was purchased!!

Next morning we took our time as we had made the decision to look at a free camp that friends had told us about called Ellendale Lake. It was another Station just off the highway and the owner had let Grey Nomads have a small piece of his land at the side of the lake. Finding the entrance to the ground was a little difficult but after we did a U turn we drove off the road and opened the gate and here was the most beautiful place for us grey Nomads!!!
We had expected cows to be on site too as comments from other Nomads on Wikicamps had mentioned the lovely cow they had named Daisy!
It would have been nice to stay a few nights but it wasn't to be.
