Day 15 (28 April) - Kings Canyon

Kate: Maddy's 3rd birthday. A day of attention, presents, playing "Mums and Dads" (my least favorite game EVER), swimming in the pool and a birthday party with balloons and cake. A very happy girl which was great!!!!
Kings Canyon is truly spectacular. I was worried it would not live up to my memories of 15 years ago but it has! So different this time because everything is so green. Locals are very happy as this has kept the dust storms down this year!!!
Only freaky thing was the sound of dingoes howling like wolves at night. There are warning signs everywhere about dingoes and wild dogs, but it is not until it is dark and you are in bed, with everything deadly quiet except for this really load howling - like they are just outside the caravan, that you are wary. Kids slept through most of it thankfully but it did wake me up all night!
