Set out going through Glenroy Crossing. Stopped for a look around. Just after coming up out of the river, Al got a flat tyre. Got it all changed ok, and continued on.

Had a look at Palms Waterhole, which has a nice flat camping area but currently not much water.

Went through another creek, then Al stopped and it turned out he had another flat tyre! Luckily where we were was one of the best spots to set up camp if we had to be stopped anywhere but our campsite. The wheels were removed and put into our car. We set up camp, had afternoon tea then dinner.
In fact it was quite fortuitous that we were stopped where we were, as at the nearby creek crossing there was a Callistemon in full bloom and it had lots of pairs of Scarlet Honeyeaters, which were little birds that none of us had ever seen before.
It rained short but heavy during the night, so luckily we had covered Dell's table with the tarp.

The rust inside the older split rims puncture tubes at the worst possible time and usually damage the tire as well.
