I was up relatively early to pack up the tent and get ready to start the trip home. While waiting for the others to get finished I headed down to the nearby ruins to take some photos.
Then a bit after 9 we headed off back to Eulo by way of a road through the back of the Park. It was in very good condition and we ended up stopping briefly in Eulo for Adam to add a Jerry can of diesel to his SWB Paj to make sure he could get back to the nearest fuel at Cunnamulla. The other two shorties had Auxiliary tanks so we didn't need to worry too much about fuel.
Then into Cunnamulla for a full refuel and then onto Bollon where we had lunch by the creek. So far there was almost no traffic on the road and most of the towns were closed on Easter Sunday. Then a leisurely drive to St George and finally onto the Nindigilly Pub where we made use of their free camping to set up for the night.
Then happy hour was happening at the pub so we wandered down for a few drinks. We ended up with quite a few drinks and also had dinner there but that was soured by the fact that after ordering at 5:30 pm we didn't actually get our meals until about 9 pm. Still a round of drinks on the house in compensation was a partial relief. Two Road Train burgers were ordered, one for Adam and Cameron and the other for Wayne and Curtis. In hind sight this was extremely optimistic with quite a bit of uneaten burger being taken back to the camp fridges. As we wandered back to camp a fairly light shower of rain passed over but it hardly even made the tents wet.
