Mount Isa again - Monday 23 - Friday 27 June
Well, the 200kms of corrugated, dusty road was not as much fun on the way back out (it never is), but we did stop at the Riversleigh Site D Fossil area, the Riversleigh Fossil Site is World Heritage listed and one of the most significant fossil deposits in the world. The D Site is the only area accessible to the public of this area, some of the fossils found date back 25 million years!
The Mount Isa Show was on during the weekend while we were at Lawn Hill and as we headed back into town we saw them all heading out, looks like we'll be travelling with the carnies.
We had to spend the week in Mount Isa waiting for some money to clear so we could stock up before heading into NT. A looooong week, thank god we had our friends Carol and Brendon here, don't know what I would have done if they weren't here.
Worth mentioning in Isa is the Irish Club (biggest in the world) and Tourism Centre (best in the world).
We are looking forward to hitting the road again tomorrow and heading towards Darwin.
