Windorah to Quilpie - 248 kms.
Quilpie was another small town that didnt have a lot to see or do but we strolled the main streets and then checked out the local catholic church. This church has an altar made from Opals. It sounds really nice, but was a big disappointing in reality. We were in an actual caravan park, so took advantage, got on a powered site, for a little bit of luxury. Did a load of washing, yes thats how exciting it was, a very quick happy hour around a campfire and then off to the Quilpie Bowls Club for a catered dinner. It was an excellent dinner. Lots of meat & veges - no dessert though,. Bummer. We are becoming more and more relaxed as the dirt roads were left behind two days ago and we have been on bitumen. Some of the roads have been extremely narrow and every time we moved off tar to give way to road trains etc. we held our breath and hoped we didnt do a tyre. Leaving the dust behind has helped us relax more. The bus is thick with it inside & out, but to not be travelling on it and camping up on it, is such a relief. This is our 2nd last night on the Safari and its starting to feel sad to know it will be soon over.
