Day 49.      Wednesday 13/07/2022   De Grey Rest Area - Marble Bar - Whim Creek Pub Rest Area

         Today we drove 488Km from De Grey Rest Area to Whim Creek Pub Rest Area which is an old

         mining pub that was closed about three years ago when the copper mine closed buy it may open 

         again, as signs that they have found copper in another area. But we took a drive via Marble Bar

         known as the hottest place in Australia where I had a beer in the Iron Clad Hotel the only pub there.
