| WELCOME TO THE NORTHERN TERRITORY! |
SATURDAY 20.07.2013: We had enjoyed the Camooweal stop so much that we had planned on staying another night. Wind and of course the accompanying dust storm that lasted all night and was still in progress when we woke led to the decision that we would be spending the day indoors and as such, we might as well be inside and drive. Great news, we have finally crossed the border into the Northern Territory! Driving along and we encounter an extended stretch of road works. Came to one section and a stationary road train was unable to safely manoeuvre his load round the trees - traffic came to a halt and we waited. One lad working on the road offered to remove the branch with a saw. He scaled the tree and set to - no result. Finally a rope was used to pull the tree back far enough for the truck to move through - oh the thrill of the journey! Spent the evening at Soudan Bore Rest Area. On arrival at the rest area Madison and Shayden were taken outside to the toilet, but the FLIES! We actually beat the dogs back into the motorhome!
