A regular visitor to the REMTREK Astro site for a number of years now, “Adhara”, always disappointed, nothing but the aroma of chickpea avocado salads.

PLEASE FOLKS, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES LEAVE FOOD SCRAPS OUT FOR THE LOCAL DINGOES, LET’S ADMIRE THEM, NOT CREATE A PROBLEMATIC DINGO POPULATION BY ASSOCIATING DALES VISITORS WITH FOOD. KEEP YOUR RUBBISH BAGS SECURED IN YOUR VEHICLES, AND YOUR FOOTWEAR OUT OF REACH.

Stunning “Adhara”, apologies for the glowing eyes, had my phone camera flash on unintentionally.
