Day 18 - CloseyRoadis ScratchyDooris

Date: 
Monday, July 8, 2024

Stayed overnight at Well 12. The weather is warming up nicely so no need for lots of layers anymore.

Yesterday we drove 120km and got in just on dark. Today the plan is 137km so a long day of driving coming up. We're planning to camp at Durba Springs for 2 nights, which will give us our first rest day since joing the tour group.

Well 12 had water - a bit salty so only really useful for washing in.

Corrugations are pretty shite - a little bit of maintenance on the fridge slide and the bash plate was needed yesterday due to everything being rattled around.

We're in the Little Sandy Desert but the grass is up to the windows of the car and everything is very lush due to all the rain earlier in the year. There are lots of CloseyRoadis ScratchyDooris plants which are unavoidable. Also, lots of wild flowers to be seen.
