Litchfield NP.

Still in Litchfield National Pk we went to the historic Blyth Homestead, which is the location of an old tin mine, the homestead has been untouched since 1960's. The history of this place was amazing the parents lived at the main station and the children lived here and worked the mine, they were up before daylight and after a days work still had all their chores to do.(A bit like Aldinga Turkeys)!!! We had to do another water crossing to get here and it was a bit scary as the water crossing was round a bend!
