Day 28 - Mataranka Homestead - Katherine

Good morning Mataranka Homestead!

Once again the peacock procession went by.  Obviously a morning ritual.



After a fairly relaxed morning organising everything we were soon back on the road and heading toward Katherine with Winnie leading the charge.


Our arrival in Katherine there was a mountain of washing to do which kept me busy well into the afternoon.  Still washing red dirt out of the sheets and doona covers I use for under the awning in an effort to try to keep as much red dirt out of Kitty as possible - this is what the bathroom floor looked like by the time I had finished as the dirty water drained out of Teresa Twintub.


Shane and Alan headed into Katherine to top up on supplies while I continued to work my way though washing - our bed sheets, doona cover, 3 loads of clothes, a dog bed, 3 floor coverings and some towels amounted to a grand total of 11 loads.  The good thing was with 31 degrees and a good strong breeze they were all dry in no time.

The important thing for the evening was to get Shane set up to watch his Melbourne Storm NRL match, which we both watched and then spent yet another gorgeous evening watching the world go by from our little patch of paradise.
