Cloncurry to Banka Banka

It was a bit of a wait in Cloncurry as we could not get a spare tyre for the VW for a couple of days but finally on Tuesday morning we were able to leave to catch up with Rachel's parents who had gone on ahead. We drove a longish day, around 850kms to a rest stop just short of Banka Banka Station where we surprised Rachel'sparents with our arrival. It was Rachel's birthday that day and I wanted desperately for us all to be together. All went well and we sat on 100 -120km per hour in the 130km zone depending on the quality of the road most of the day. I always believe in traveling to the road conditions.
