Day 5 21/06/2016. Dinosaurs, well sort of.

After a great night’s sleep, we were up and off to the Dinosaurs Stampede diggings. It was a 110 km drive each way, half of which was gravel. With all the rain there were a lots of detours and road works, so we did a bit of off-roading on this trip. The car is brown now. Hayden enjoyed the drive out, as I was driving so we had a little bit of water and mud flying around! The stampede site was quite interesting, and of course the local employees made it better with their passion. 3,300 dinosaur foot prints in one area of rock. Hayden’s interest once again kicked in and he asked the guide lots of questions. The country side around the centre was also stunning. After lunch we visited the musical fence, and let Hayden loose for 30 plus minutes. We have decided to stay another night in Winton in the hope that the road to Australian Age of Dinosaurs Nature History Museum is open tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
