Hi way Roadhouse Petrol Cows et al
We left Katherine and scrapped the car as we filled with diesel ! The road was a fantastic experience and we had to buy extra Jerry Cans as our fuel tank wouldn’t get us to our destination.We drove past such iconic places as Larrimar and Daly Waters cos we have spent time there before.We fueled up at the appropriately named HIWAY roadhouse (presumably because the fuel prices were high !) The single lane road to our next destination Heartbreak Hotel (really) and even provided a country singer who was very good,as usual all staff and customers were really friendly, was almost 400 kms of single,very bumpy uneven road and proved to be very interesting .We passed a few cows an some were fossiking among the remains of a long dead cow (I cant explain why that happened BUT it was eerie) Travelled down the Stuart and turned on to the Carpenteria road Interestingly one roadhouse uses 500 litres of diesel daily to keep the generators running !! One pub had wild pigs in captivity and he introduced us to the next weeks roast !! Along the way we witnessed a few eagles and hawks feeding on roadkill kangaroos
