Flinders Ranges trip ... Days 3 and 4

Day 3 13/9/14

Our room at the Prairie Hotel. It is sunk into the ground to keep cool.

~

We had a beautiful brekky...

~

~

This is the arid landscape...we saw lots of emus...

~

Plenty of firewood...

~

Time to hit the dirt road and head for Parachilna Gorge...

~

This is the stunning creek bed in the gorge...

~

Our camp set up...

~

One thing we like to do is eat good food and it doesn't have to be 'camp' food all the time...

~

Bbq chicken caesar salad - a bag salad with all the ingredients, very easy!

~

~

My throne!

~

Dinner - steak with baked veggies (again, it was a pack already to roast), peas (remember 'Surprise Peas' - you can still get them!) and gravy.

~

Day 4 14/9/14

Poached eggs on crumpets...

~

Gus thought lunch sitting in the creekbed was a good idea. It was much cooler there and the flies were not as numerous!

~ 

Peking duck wraps? Why not!   We reheated the duck in a foil tray in the BabyQ and heated the pancakes in foil too.

~

~

Spot the emu! He wandered along towards us, pecking and feasting on the wild watercress in the creek...

~

It was a very relaxing day - we just sat there in the shade...

~

Time to light the Ozpig again. The weather has been fantastic, nice and warm, slight breeze and mild at night...

~

Dinner was a split, marinated chook, scallop potatoes and tossed salad...
