We packed up and I caught the bus to Airlie Beach (Whitsundays), about 500 kms down the road. Rob is riding that distance and should be here in about 4 days. Meanwhile I am staying in the YHA here and will have to do something about my leg. I'm reluctant to see a medical professional (I'm not fond of them), but I may need to do so. I'm still bleeding through my dressings. Mainly though, I think I need to immobilize the knee. I suspect that every pedal stroke is reopening the wounds. But I don't think I cleaned out all the gravel either so I've got to watch it for infection - especially up here in this heat.
The trip to Airlie Beach was uneventful and the scenery is stark! It looks very barren and dry, not like the areas north of Cairns at all!!
I'm going to find something to eat, and a shower, soon.
