Another day dawned in the Northern Territory – and another appearance by Branch as we were preparing to leave. MacGyver’s fridge would not work on the car battery setting – multiple attempts were had at resetting the fridge, checking fuses, Anderson plug (not the Anderson plug!!!), cables, caravan batteries etc etc – it was a flurry of activity with everyone putting in their 2 cents worth – including Branch. Finally Trev detected that it was the 12 pin plug that had shorted out and needed to be replaced – an easy fix but we will have to buy one at the next town.

Kerry and Rosie took our frozen food into their freezers and we got underway aiming to get to Daly Waters pub for lunch.

Rosie had a zip issue – she thought her jacket zip was broken – missing the runner bit…until Gordie noticed it at the top of the zip – a normal opening zip that you connect at the bottom and zip up – the tab had just migrated to the top – issue fixed without Branch!

We reached Daly Waters for lunch and enjoyed a pub meal and the ambience of the “collector” pub – absolutely ramdom but fascinating place full of items of lost (or donated) paraphernalia.

Glen got stuck into his “Hilux Burger”.. Oh what a feeling!!

Across the road from the pub we saw a junk shop and went inside for a quick look – Trev found the 46 station sign thagt had been missing for ages…lots of other random vehicles including a police car with a sign in it – this photo is for you Joel H, Daniel B and Meagan hahaha.

Trev had tried a number of places to get another 12 pin plug and finally we got half one at Mataranka at Roper River Mechanical.

We arrived at King River free camp and set up for the night – Trev fixed the 12 pin plug with Branch at his side while we enjoyed happy hour.
