28/8/2010 Saturday Chillagoe day 24

Well today we were going to do something different than driving. We had booked 3 cave tours which will take all day.

It was another hot day in Chillagoe so we thought it would be good to spend it in the caves.

The first cave was Donna cave it took 1hr which was very interesting but not very cool like we thought.

The second was Trezkinn cave I did not think it was as good as the first one and still not very cool this one took 1hr as well. So that was the morning filled up.

We took a drive out to balancing rock and the Giggenbach's decided to leave us for the night and go to Mareeba and look at something in there.

We headed back to camp for lunch before we headed out to the Royal Arch cave. This was a very interesting cave and took 11/2hrs it had a lot to look at in this one and spots were very cool.

After that we went for a swim in the pool at the park and it was very refreshing.

Had a very simple dinner as it was still very hot.
