From Marree we set off to William Ck but it wasn’t far before we hit trouble again. This time it was Mikes turn to change his forth tyre for the trip.

We then pasted Lake Eyre South hoping to see it full as there had been many accounts of water in the lake but apparently its all in the north of the lake and our end was still dry.
Lake Eyre Empty/Full
Driving further north we passed the Mound Springs. Intriguing mounds formed by artesian springs that have been flowing for centuries and now sit perched on top of hillocks in the middle of the dessert.

Blanche Cup
Arriving at William Ck we setup camp and then sprinted to the pub to escape the flys who were trying desperately to carry Jan back to their hideout. We stayed there playing 500 and then for dinner waiting for the sun to set and the flys to dissipate.
