15th Jan 2009. Day 2. Saunders Landing to Post and Rail camp.
Woke about 9am. slept in my cocoon tent ok. Watched the moon through the roof. Soreness wore off pretty quickly moving about. Met the man who the Landing is named after, Mr Saunders. He came to launch his boat to do some fishing with his best mate. Said he cleared the area himself and had built a hut there in the 70's. The Parks people made him pull it down. Left there about 10:45 and walked to Pritchards car camping area. Had a swim and filled up with water from a campers shop bought water supply container. We had been drinking the river water, pretty nice it is too.. Ate a good lunch of Army spag bol, soup, coffee etc... Moved off to Post and Rail camp 40 minutes away. Pitched our tents & taught Sue she has to suck her condensed milk straight from the tube. And she said it was "Good." Went for a swim by accessing the river walking through the reeds, no platform at "post and rail" b/c it's a walk in camp only. Not for kayaks or boats.
