We woke early along with all the animals and to the sound of mangoes falling. There are mango trees everywhere.

| The termite mounds are much easier to see where there have been burn offs |

We drove down the Development Road until a lunch stop at the Musgrove Roadhouse which is the old Telegraph Station.

Heading south, we turned off just before Laura and followed Battle Camp Road to Cooktown. On this section of road Christine completed three creek crossings....but no photos because she didn't want to stop and risk getting stuck.
Finally we arrived in Cooktown and found a Caravan Park in the centre of town. Although small and dated we could walk everywhere......which is a bit of a novelty so far.

| Our campsite and John relaxing after setting up and before we went for a swim......in the pool of course......we don't want any crocodiles getting us. |

We had a pizza for tea in the restaurant at the front of the park.
