Mount Isa to Cloncurry

It was a short hop (120 km) from Mount Isa to Cloncurry, whose claim to fame is the founding of the Royal Flying Doctor Service. The history of this is very interesting and credit must be given to those involved. A very well laid out museum presents the RFDS from its founding in the 1920s. It has done sterling service and we on the safari are supporting its ongoing work. Each time we forget to wear our name tags we are fined a dollar. It costs 5 dollars to take Kenny for the day. That all goes into the RFDS collecting tin. The money that was refunded from the cancelled camel races will also go there.

Happy Hour at Cloncurry

This evening's dinner was a "mystery dinner" at a restaurant in town. It was very good and a great time was had by all. Tomorrow we have an early start as we have a 380 km run to Normanton.
