Day 34 – Sunday 22 August 2021 –50 km

The sound of campers packing this morning & leaving as all the weekend campers start heading back home.  We go for a walk through Granite Gorge again this morning, from the other direction. It is just as beautiful & the wallabies just as cute & friendly.

The campground is nearly deserted as we have lunch, a few scattered camps remain amongst the trees, this is a really nice place to be. We head into Mareeba & out to the Golden Drop Winery a few kilometres north. We are the only visitors at the Winery & wonder if it is closed. The winery is open & we get an exclusive wine tasting of mango wine, all the different varieties from dry to sweet, sparkling, port & liquor. I don’t like mangoes, but was pleasantly surprised by the taste. We helped the economy & got a box full.

Next it was in to Mareeba & grocery shopping, the last shop was Darwin & that was a couple of weeks ago, so some supplies are running low. We are surprised how much ends up in our trolley & how much leaves our wallet. Back to camp, unpack the groceries & I go for a walk to the creek while Tereza starts preparing some food. Then cheese, bikkies & wine followed by another good meal. Another great day.
