Kings Creek Station

After a night of camping at Kings Creek Station last night, we packed up the tent this morning and headed out for a look around the area.

We took a drive out along the Mereenie Loop to a nice lookout. View was great, but the wasps dive bombing us and chasing us weren't that inviting! George did find himself a new pair of sunnies though!!

Next stop was the Kings Canyon Resort for a beer and some lunch. The food was great and staff were really friendly. George had a camel burger for lunch, it was the first try of camel meat for both of us. It wasn't bad, similar kind of flavour to beef really. George really enjoyed the burger.

Arrived back at Kings Creek Station and checked in to our accommodation for the night while we waited for Kylie and Johnny (aka daddy!) to arrive. They were driving down direct from Alice Springs.

Tonight we are staying in two safari cabins, basically an on site permanent tent with beds.

This afternoon we went for a swim, water was freezing, (as has been the case everywhere we've been!), but we still both went in. You could tell it was cold as even the kids weren't swimming!

Also got stung by wasp while at the pool, and to think that I'd just saved it from drowning in the water! Ungrateful little wasp!
