18th September, 2014

Well we awoke this morning to a beautiful clear desert morning at Renahans Bore. Last night as we went to bed a Road Train pulled in to the car park and left his motor running for about half an hour, apparently another vehicle stopped as well but I didn't hear it, too busy knocking back the zzzz's.

The graders were working just south of our overnight camp, so the rest of the Tanami was a bit rougher than the first 590 k, well at least until we hit the bitumen, 220 k from Alice. This part of the drive was a lot more scenic than the first half, as we climbed and passed some mountain ranges. We stopped at Alice at 1:30 and washed the car and camper before having lunch on Anzac Hill, while we made the decision to stay here overnight and then push for home over the next three days. 

Dave and Linda let us know that there vehicle needs a fuel pressure regulator or similar and the NRMA are going to have them towed to Kununurra to have it fixed on Monday, hopefully it doesn't sting them too much.

Won't be much to report (hopefully) over the next few days as we push hard for home on the bitumen but I will continue to post until we make it home.
