May 16: So we decided to move on from windy Cooktown and drove back down the highway.
We stopped for the night at Rocky Creek, a free camp site just south of Mareeba.
May 17: We finally got Keith's 12 volt issues fixed properly and now the cigarette lighter sockets all work and we don't have to disconnect the battery terminal to stop the battery from running flat. Mareeba was not a very salubrious town and we decided to camp at Granite Gorge Nature Park about 20km away.
We had a little explore of the boulders that arvo, before cooking our dinner on the fire pigs provided. 
May 18: Danny and Indigo got up early to watch the sunrise.
Then we did the big walk - climbing and jumping to the next boulder. Indigo stayed at camp as there was lots of wallabies along the way who didn't want to play with her.
The wallabies were fat and friendly from all the tourist tit-bits they regularly get fed.
We packed up our camp and it was time to head off to Atherton.
