Crossing the border into South Oz to Innamincka where they have just had major flooding.
Day 4. 28 September - Innamincka to Birdsville= 310kms
We then head to Birdsville for two nights and of course the famous Birdsville Pub, after the drive from Innamincka to Birdsville through the beautiful Strzelecki Desert either via Australia’s largest shearing shed or Walkers Crossing 4x4 heaven.
