So this morning we packed up and left Mitchell Falls, we had had a great couple of nights up here and in doing so marked another one off the bucket list.

The first 40 k back to King Edward River was pretty slow going again, maybe ten minutes or so quicker than the way up but then we hit the graded road and wasn't it bliss. We cruised for the second half of the trip and arrived back at King Edward River one hour quicker than on the way up.

We set up in the same spot and relaxed for the afternoon before heading off to the Wandjina Art Site which is just near the never crossing. There was a couple of great panels of Wandjina Art just near the entry, some hand stencils, echidnas and other art at the site. The panels of the Wandjinas were the highlight for me.

Another swim just before dinner to wash all of the dust off and then we watched the sunset on the river again while talking to a couple from the ACT. The reflections on the water and the colours in the paperbark trees made for great viewing. 

The zip on the kitchen side entry door to the tent has started playing up tonight, I think it is just so full of dust and dirt, luckily we have another door to use.
