We set off relatively early as we had a long drive ahead. About an hour later we got our first flat tyre, dam!!
Luckily it was not too hot and Lloyd (with my help of course!) was able to change the tyre and we then felt rather uneasy that we had only the one spare. We have 2 for the caravan but not the Landcrusier. At lest the road to Exmouth was rather busier than the roads we had travelled in the previous weeks. Our first task in Exmouth would be to get the tyre fixed and obtain another spare too.
Exmouth is a holiday town that is busy from April through to October school holidays so there was plenty of spaces available.

Lloyd changing the flat tyre!!
We stayed at the Exmouth caravan park and spent time on the phone organising tyres.We discovered that the tyre was a right off and our spare was an odd tyre even though it was nearly brand new so it meant 2 new tyres were needed.Thats what happens when you travel many kms and we so far have had no other trouble with the Landcrusier so it was all good, we even managed to get another wheel so we now have 2 spares and feel much better!!!
We also visited the information centre and got everything we needed about our visit to Cape Range National Park. All around the centre are emus so of course we had to photograph one.
