Leaving narawntapu national park for tania kernaghan @ Mole Creek

Having left the park fairly late we pointed the almighty 4.2 cruiser tears the western tiers of Tasssie and onwards towards Mole creek for the tania kernaghan concert this afternoon/night on the way out of the park we did the obligatory tour of the rangers showroom which the kids enjoyed immensely with taxidermy display of seabirds and mammals .
Today's journey took up a massive 72 Kms a milestone by Tasmania standards I'm sure but a mere puddle by most 4wd mainland scales .
Quite happy to leave the park after many weekend campers arrived last night and a few noisy 4x4 club qlders .
A trip down the Bass Hwy yet again then a brief gourmet lunch at the elizabeth town bakery ETC and onto Mole creek rd , a meer hour in total had us at the mole creek caravan park which was quaint but quite pleasant and only $25 a night total which was good considering we had run out of water and one bottle of gas so van supplies were needed there .
A few frothies after we arrived and set up we moved onto the hotel and the concert .
As luck would have it it was cash only so we missed out on Tanias first set while we ducked up to the ever present iga for the ATM and folding funds but listened to some great music until she came back on with some special local guests .
Getting our country on felt so comfortable and free and I must say the mrs did her whole kinder assistant to a T and joined in with Shahla and a whole heap of youngens .
I couldn't resist Shahla and her persistent rants to get me up and dancing so as a few photos may tell I was up and dancing but sorry shirl I didn't go to the boot scoot school of dance so I rocked out as best I could remember .
All in all an absolutely out of the box different day for all of us even if it felt kinda normal considering we knew no one there today .
The next few bands ranged from buddy holly to Keith urban and a absolutely marvellous Vikka and Linda ish 5 piece called "the firm and the blackberries " that played an awesome 2 sets of dancing hits which implored many more songs than what they were probably paid for .
Music over at 930 so it was time to go much to shahla's discuss as she made some good friends On the day .
Back at the park a quick beer burp up the rd ,I find myself writing the days events and feeling tired but ready to explore some more caves tomorrow .
