Arriving at Mt Dare and lining up for fuel. We had travelled 590 kms and used 120 litres of fuel. Fuel was $2.70 a litre it had been $3.15 but with the lastest delivery and the government reducing the tax this load was $2.70 a litre.

We stopped at opossum water hole on the way to Mt Dare. I managed to capture some of the hundreds of zebra finches.

Some large spider webs and equally large spiders around the water hole.

This wind mill out the front of the Mt Dare Hotel isn't operational, but does make for stunning photos in the morning sunrise.

The vehicles getting ready for an 8:30 departure. Not all of us are heading back across the desert. Bob and Janet are taking the bitumen route. Ian and Lars are not risking doing any more damage to Ian's ute and are also following the bitumen back to Queensland. Don is not feeling well and will be heading south down the Stuart Highway for home. (When he got home he did a RAT and tested positive for COVID.)
