Arriving in Isisford we had lunch/afternoon tea at the museum and went on to the camp ground Oma's Waterhole as we thought this would be less expensive than the one in the city and we decided not to watch the NRL final in the local pub. The camp ground was good – had flushing toilets and hot and cold showers. The camp ground looked a bit like the newly planned cities – one main street and several dead ends on either side with the houses at the end...
Next morning we drove into the town to pay for the camp site (cost just $2 per night) and discovered that the camp ground in the city costs the same – we could have watched the final... anyway we drove to our goal for the day – the Idalia National Park where you could see a wave shaped cliff – maybe similar to the Wave Rock in WA. It should even be possible to see Koalas in this park we were out of luck.
The other day we drove to Blackall to relax in the Artesian Spa and have a look at the Woolscour where someone shared over 300 sheep's within one day with blades – the record stood for over 50 years until it was beaten by a shearer using the shearers comb. In this area we saw the first wild pigs, several eagles and emus – all with young ones. Some emus even had four chicks – they must be thriving.
