Easter 2014 Lawn Hill trip Day 5

I had a little sleep in today as the shoulders and knees were still a bit tender after the exertions of yesterday. After a leisurely Brekky I did a few things around camp and wrote up my blog of the epic adventures of the previous day. Wayne, Anne, and company got up really early and climbed to the top of Island Stack to see the sunrise. After lunch we all went for drive out to the Riversleigh Fossil site about 55 kms away. 

The site doesn't seem to have changed since I was there in 2005 and the self guided walk doesn't really show you many fossils.  

It was hot wandering up the hill and around the site, so we decided to head down the road another couple of kms to the Gregory River crossing and have a swim. The fast flowing water was perfect and very refreshing. 

Then it was back to camp for some chocolate birthday cake for afternoon tea and then a bit of a rest before dinner. Dessert  at Wayne and Anne's campsite consisted of chocolate Easter egg cake and ice cream and was the perfect way to end the day.
