Today we had short drive. We had to backtrack a little bit because we wanted to go to Douglas Hot Springs. We got a nice bush camp site with a camp fire place. After we set up we went to Fenton WWll air field. In the war USA airforces and RAAF used it for flying to attack Japanese forces In the islands. Some of the planes crashed at the air field and the Japanese also bombed it. We saw some parts of the old crashed planes. On the way to the Hot Springs we saw some Brahman cattle. They have humps one their back. When we got to the Hot Springs we couldn’t believe that it can be so hot that you can hardly stand there then if you take a step it can be freezing cold. It was only deep enough to sit and stand not swim. The water can get up to 60 degrees. We went home and had chicken roast in the camp oven that Mum made and I made some damper to go with it.
