Port Augusta to Wilpena Pound

 
Left Mt Remarkable and stopped in port Augusta to stock up on food and booze.  Coninued on north towards the Flinders Range where we stopped at a few Aboriginal 'art gallerys' read: cave paintings.  It was very neat to see some of the simplistic drawings for the mere fact that they had most likely been drawn before bibilical times.  We arrived in Wilpena and found that our camping pass did not apply to their private camp ground so we took an 18km drive on a slightly dodgy dirt road and camped at Bunyeroo Gorge.  Saw an incredible number of kangaroos on the way to the site.  Two other groups were camped there but that didn't spoil the isolation to much. There was an amazing amount of stars to been seen.
