Left Drysdale at 8:30am, stopped at Elenbrae for scones and jam and a cup of tea.

There was a big steep water crossing into Elenbrae and we grounded the trailer/car on a rock!  We saw two dingos whilst sitting having tea and scones.  We continued to Home Valley and we were going to camp there but it was $63 a night and there were no water holes you could swim in and so we had lunch at the restaurant there and travelled to El Questro instead.  We crossed the Pentecost River and filmed it with the GoPro on the roof.

Arrived at El Questro at 5:30pm and set up after a 9 hour drive (Daddy drove all the way).  We had dinner, spaghetti and meatballs and chilli beans) and bought some ice creams at the shop (bar).

On our first day in El Questro we did some washing and wrote our journals, then Oliver and I entertained mummy and daddy with our version of a Quidditch match, El Questro Rules!

Because it was their 19th Wedding Anniversary.  After that we went for a dip in the cold creek.  When we came back we had a shower and went out to dinner and mummy and daddy got a free bottle of wine and a lovely desert served by us!

Yummy!

Yummy!
