Day 17 - Innot Hot Springs

Monday 3rd May, 2021

Got up early and went across to the caravan park to do my washing. Whilst waiting I went down to the creek which was steaming away and stood in it having a chat to a park guest. It's funny you can stand in the one spot and then all of a sudden hot water will make you jump.

Anywhere that mentions water being heated by magma and rising to surface will stay on my short visit register.

Below: Indoor Pools. The front right is about 43 degrees c.

The front left is the cold pool

I got a wristband that lets you visit the pool area in the caravan park. It has been done up and looks good. There are 3 outdoor pools and 3 indoor pools.

I ended up in the lobster boiling pot and jumped over to a cold pool. Did this a bit during the day until I was pruned. Then some mindless television. After last nights dissapointment with the steak, I thought I would order the "Authentic Indian Butter Chicken". It was also a dissapointment.

I pointed out it was the wrong colour and got a grunt. Tasted more like Keens Curry powder. Oh well can't recommend this place to eat. Mount Garnet pub is 16 kilometres up the road. I should have tried a lift.

Much rested for the next section which is a 10 or so days till the next bit of civilisation other than station homesteads.
