I'm back at Bridge Creek tonight and hopefully there will be no more bush fires to contend with this time.
Driving south down the Stuart Highway the bush fires were evident all around with thick black smoke rising above the treetops. There was a huge fire burning in Litchfield National Park. I think the fires must be a fairly common occurrence up here in the Northern Territory.
I will probably stay here tomorrow night before heading back into Katherine on Saturday, where I will stay again for a couple of nights before heading off on the final leg of my journey down through the centre.
At this stage I am planning on arriving home around the first week in September, but once I start getting closer it will be hard to resist the urge to put my foot down. I really miss my family and can't wait to see them.
