Stayed at the campground to west side of the showground. Free, no toilets or power, but some taps available. Set up and did the mandatory stop at the info centre. Not a lot to see and do here seems they are riding a bit on the Dinosaur trails popularity. We took a drive out to a extremely small town of Prairie, had a half pint each and a chat to the publican, then turned around and came back to camp. The next day made up for everything, we went to Porcupine Gorge beautiful, amazing and just gorgeous. When you get out this way somethings take your breath away. We took the 1.2km track to the bottom of the gorge, sounds easy eh, some of it was, some of it was almost vertical. Going down was one thing and well worth it, a cool refreshing swim was our reward, but going back up was something else and were we glad to see the top again. Thankfully Griffo had thought it would be nice to have tea at the pub, I agreed!! Next day we decided to have a lazy one. at the tourist info centre they have a small museum with a full size replica skeleton of the Muttaburrasaurus, some more fossils and a history of the area, not bad for 5 bucks a head.
