Day 53 Wednesday 17 July 2019 Middle Lagoon to Roebuck 215 kms

A lot of sand blowing again overnight and were packed up and left at 8:00 am after getting a jump start from our neighbour. That gave us a bit of a fright as it took a bit to get our car going. Not much traffic on the narrow road this early and we arrived at Broome at 11:30 am. Went straight to an Auto Electrician who again tested the battery and all tests were fine but he could not guarantee that it would not be flat again tomorrow. Given the age of the battery, 4 1/2 years we opted to get a new battery fitted so hope that that was the problem. Pies for lunch back at the caravan then unpacking the car and doing some washing of the sheets and Doona cover in particular after being covered in sand. A lot more people in the Park and Broome at the moment as this weekend is the time of the Staircase to the Moon. Instead of cooking dinner tonight the Park put on a sausage sizzle in aid of Prostate Cancer so we ate there and talked to a number of people who were keen to pick our brains about our Cape Leveque trip.
