Great day touring a few of the attractions in and around Kununurra with Daryl and Delphine today. After a bit of a mix up with accommodation in Kununurra, Carol and I set up camp in the Kumberleyland Park this morning. Setting up next to Daryl and Delpheen was great as we had been looking forward to catching up with them and exchanging experiences and must see sights for the rest of our trips. We spent the morning hiking through the Hidden Valley National Park w...

Despite Carol's slightly sore head (ps funny how Tony doesn't mention his sore head! )we managed a relatively early start to our hiking this morning. We headed off to do the Bindaloo Lookout Walk at 7:30. The brochure described it as a 3 to 4 hour walk so we braced ourselves for a big morning. The walk took us through some really interesting country and provided several views back over the Cockburn Range and other sections of the Home Valley Station. I suspect Ca...

Arriving early gave Carol an opportunity to catch up with some ...

Slide-on handled it no worries but the boat trailer had a few minor issues with one of the ratchet straps breaking and the timber supporting the tilt coming adrift. Drinks from our camp overlooking the gorge were pretty special before tea and an early night. June 5 Special day today, not just because it's my birthd...

Yesterday we flew out to the Horizontal Waterfalls with Seaplane Adventures. Taking off in the seaplane from the dusty Derby airport, we had little idea of what the next 15 hours would bring. The thong wearing pilot Jeremy, offered me the co-pilots seat which I gratefully accepted. The front seat provided a brilliant position to see the changing country side. Heading north we flew over some incredible flood plains and muddy creeks, rivers and gulfs. The mind bog...
