Pine Creek

 4 - 6 July 2022

We decided to revisit Pine Creek for another session with the Hooded Parrots, and because it is a nice spot. It was quite busy on our last stay and even busier this time. We had to settle for an unpowered site and we found a nice one in the shade, which actually provided a good bit of sun in just the right place for the solar.

The cold nights looked like they would continue for at least another week, although the days were beautful - mid-twenties and sunny. Mick went out with the camera early and we pottered around at camp during the day. We also went down to have a look at the nearby Miners' Park with its extensive display of old mining equipment and interesting interpretative displays.

We had dinner at the Lazy Lizard again and as luck would have it, it was pizza night. We shared a pizza which was delicious. The pub and attached caravan park have built a good reputation and seem to be working hard to keep it. Amenities are well maintained, grounds are well kept and staff are friendly. 

We left Pine Creek to travel back to Nitmiluk National Park to stay again at Leliyn (Edith Falls). As always we had booked ahead and being school holidays, we knew it would be crowded.
