Road to Halls Creek and Mary Pool

We drove a nice 450kms today in a convoy with our Dutch friend (the good roads help) as our van as a puny 40 litre tank we have to make stops at ripoff merchant roadhouse to refuel...it's almost like being back in Ireland. We drove to Halls Creek just a small 2 bit town, the drive itself is very scenic and really beautiful, we saw everyting from wild horses to buffalo roaming the sides of the roads. We stopped in Mary Pool and went for a quick dip in the secluded part of the lake, probably not the best idea but it was blocked off by rocks and they are ONLY freshwater crocs (I love when the aussies say this!)
