THURSDAY 29 JULY SOUTH HEDLAND
It was an early start, as we had to have M at the airport by 8am.

Early morning, South Hedland
Watched M onto her plane – to Perth. From there, she would fly to Darwin, to meet her mother, who had flown from Melbourne. They would catch the new Ghan train service from there to Adelaide.
Shopped at the supermarket in South Hedland for food.
Refuelled truck – $1.06cpl.
I phoned Exmouth and booked us into a caravan park.
Then we sat round, relaxing, for the rest of the day. It had been a much more hectic three weeks than we were used to. Our travelling and sight seeing was usually done at a much slower pace!
Had a phone call from M, after she reached Perth. She said they flew over Karijini and that it looked really spectacular from the air.
