Birdsville & Windorah : This is the closing stage of our tour.  We left Birdsville on 8 September in an attempt to stay ahead of the forecasted rain, we did not want to find ourselves stranded again.  It was my eldest son's 40th birthday.  The road to Windorah was closed so we headed northwards towards Bedourie and turned south along the Diamantina Development Road towards Windorah.  This detour was really the long way around, and we were advised to proceed with caution.  That evening we camped out on the treeless gibber plains near Boundary Creek on the Diamantina Development Road, the next day we were caught in an amazingly severe storm just outside of Windorah.  Relieved not to be stranded by flooding again, we made it into Quilpie.  It has been a great five months and now it is over.

Great Keppel Island : Great Keppel Island is a 1454 hectare tropical island edged by 17 sandy beaches. It is the largest in the 14 islands known as the Keppel group. 

The first European to travel through the area was Captain James Cook who sailed through the Keppel group between 25 - 27 May 1770. He experienced some difficulty with the shallowness of the water. During this time he named Great Keppel Island and Keppel Bay (after Admiral August Keppel - first Lord of the Admiralty) and Cape Capricorn. 

Cook did not land at Great Keppel. Nor did Matthew Flinders who must have sighted the island in 1804 when he circumnavigated Australia. 

It wasn't until 1847 that the first European, a naturalist named McGillivray, set foot near Leeke's Creek. Of course Aborigines had been using the island for thousands of years prior to this. There are well preserved middens (mounds of shells) at the western end of Long Beach.
