After a long days drive we came across a sign that pointed us to a Platypus Reservation and stayed the night. This was totally unexpected and we had the privilege of seeing . . .
While we were camped at the Refuge we met a retired Australian couple that were also at the site and struck up a conversation. They were extremely friendly and gave us alot of good tips about camping in Australia and mentioned that the War Memorial in the capital was a must see. The fellow mentioned that he had a great camping book that has maps of all the campsites accompanied with an index showing the facilities of each campsite. He offered to take a digital photo of the pages in the camp book pertaining to our route which we could then download onto our computer and take a closer look when planning our trip. What an excellent idea and away he went, got his book and started snapping pictures with our camera. We were set!
I am grateful for the kindness of strangers.
