The first town that we came to was a quaint little town called Hughenden.

The Muttaburrasaurus...... Named Mutt.... Original huh? Lol
They have found fossil remains of a Muttaburrasaurus Langdoni Herbivore, which they say roamed the shores of the historic inland sea, where the modern day township of Hughenden sits.
My whole family has cowboy hats..... And as of today so do I!!!! Flanny shirts one week, cowboy hats the next, what more bogan things could happen next week? Lol

As you can tell.... I LOVE photos..... NOT!!! Haha
From Hughenden we continued on our journey, stopping off to admire Porcupine Gorge

A bit blurry sorry....not so good on the edge of a high platform......

Some awesome colored rocks at the bottom......

View the other way.......
From there the next stop was Pyramid Lookout. Same gorge, from a different spot. There is also a campground just down from the lookout which has toilets etc.

View into the gorge.....

Nice blue dragon fly that we saw on our walk.......

A red dragon fly (middle of photo) that we saw too.... Sorry, bad photo but the silly thing wouldn't stay still long enough!!!

Bottom of Pyramid lookout gorge......

Awesome rock face in the gorge.......

Cool coloured walls of creek..... Washed away by the water.......
We traveld on down the Kennedy Developemental Road, stopping for lunch at a gorgeous creek of the side of the road.

Kade HAD to try to catch something in his net while we ate lunch.....

Very peaceful......
We were hoping to camp at Archer River, for the night but the Kennedy rd was that rough that we could only go very slowly; which made it too late to reach Archer River. So we stopped on the side of the road, in a gravel pit again - a favourite of ours because it's a nice clear area and great to have a fire!
There was a huge pile of road base right next to where we camped so that kept the kids very busy for the remaining daylight hours...

The pile of road base.......

Kade on top of the pile.....

View of our camp from the top of the pile.....
That's all for today.....
Lots of love the Barramundi's xx
