The day started with a cooked breakfast as we were not in a hurry to go anywhere today.
Sunrise at Seisia Beach
We plan to free camp or camp in national parks without any facilities for the next few days, so we make sure to fill up with fuel and water. Only diesel available at Seisia at $1.80. Good price considering how far north we are.
First on the itinerary was a series of plane wrecks around the airport. They are quiet well preserved as they are aluminium. There are also hundreds of 200l fuel barrels from WWll strewn around the sites. Unfortunately there no really info boards at these wrecks, so we couldn’t get further info. Another thing we noticed is how badly these sites are marked- most with homemade signs and one with a piece of rag tied to the tree. A shame when you consider that travellers are interested in seeing these pieces of history.
After finding the three wrecks we headed to Umagico as they apparently have a great coffee shop. This is off our route but we figured it will be worth it. We didn’t see it as we drove through the little town and stopped by the supermarket to find out where it is and if it is open today. Unfortunately the lady in the supermarket said that the coffee shop had closed down and no longer operates. Sad news unfortunately.
We then had a 30min drive to Muttee Heads- our intended free camp for a couple of nights. There are only maybe 4 sites there. We stayed here while Christo checked for a nicer one down the way. He found a good spot in Turtle Bay, so we followed him there and set up camp. There is only space for a small group here and that is all. Its quiet, and pleasant and I have a view overlooking the sea from my tent.

We had a very late BBQ dinner , accompanied by champagne as Matt had seen on Facebook that it was my birthday- I hadn’t told anyone.
The roads are taking their toll on some equipment- fridge plug broke and needed soldering, the kitchen tap switch needed fixing and the car battery is not keeping charge well. All need fixes.
