Day 5 Mackay 28.5.18

Left Rocky at the scheduled time of 8am and went to the Capricorn caves. The cave was spectacular. We saw micro bats, fig tree roots searching for water, limestone and lots of nooks and crannies. We zig zagged through crevices made from seeping water & crawled through smallish tunnels. Greg even found an unusual spider.

Picnic lunch with lovely views was at Claireview. The boys found oysters on the rocks for their dessert.

Fuel was cheap at Carmila, $1.43.9. Other places it was $1.55 Then it was on to Mackay for the next 2 nights. A leisurely dinner was had by all in the camp kitchen.
Today we traveled 345kms.
