Today was spent organising the van and car for our trip to Lorella Springs. We contacted Heartbreak Hotel at Cape Crawford which is just before the turn off to Lorella and asked if we could store the van there and they kindly replied we could for $10 a night. So plan is to pack up tomorrow morning, drive to Heartbreak Hotel, leave van and head up to Lorella Springs for a few days.
Today was also spent in the Bitter Springs again floating on our pool noodles. We couldn't resist and even went early this morning to try and beat the crowds. It was so cool the springs were steaming as obviously it was quite cool (about 18 degrees) in the morning but springs are still 34degrees. I actually floated to the end and it was too cold to get out where you would normally have to walk back to the start so I busted my ass and swam back just so I didn't have to get out. Early morning workout! Was tough swimming against the current of the water, feels like you are getting nowhere...but I made it.
We also tried to help one of our neighbours find his camera. He capsized his kayak and the camera went into the creek. Major bummer! He had all photos of his trip up to NT and if he cant find it, will never see them again. He had let Joel have a crack in his kayak a few times since we have been here so we wanted to try and help him so Joel jumped into the freezing cold creek while I kept an eye out for crocs....but unfortunately no luck. That is a good lesson to always transfer your photos every night to something other than your camera.
Anyway not much else going on today and big drive tomorrow so off to bed early.
