We left Daly Waters and drove on the Renner Springs where we stopped to have lunch. Dave and Leonie (a couple we met the night before) were also stopped for lunch and to let their dogs out for a walk. As we went to get into the van Rick noticed one of the tyres on the van was fairly flat. We were aware it had a slow leak but it had gone down quickly this time. Because Rick's wrists still needed to be treated gently, he enlisted Dave's help to change the tyre and Dave kindly plugged the leak for us.
We then drove a further 70kms to a place called Banka Banka Station where we camped for $20 per night. Here we had beautiful spring water at our site but no power, mobile or TV.
In the morning we walked a short distance up the hill behind Banka Banka where we could look down over the camping area. There was a 2km walk to a waterhole but we asked another couple whether or not it was worth doing and they said it wasn't so we didn't bother.
