A two night stop over in Derby! I really didnt know what to expect,We love it. So many boab trees here. We stopped off to check out the Boab prison tree which they used to hold prisoners in over night. The tree could be up to 1000 years old. Beautiful art work here on display in the gallerys. Mowanjum Aboriginal arts & cultural centre was very insightful a must for everyone to experience a tiny piece of aboriginal culture and faith. The art work magnificent I really wanted to buy one til I saw the price tag!! ( Bugga). Derby is home to Australias biggest tide, known as the king tide. The tides come in and out at a difference of 11 mtrs. So while the tide was high at 3.12pm this arvo we tried our luck at fishing from the jetty! met a lovely local but no fish unfortunatley. Looking forwards to Gibb river road tomorrow. Were all stocked up on the staple foods ( beer and freddos) and packed and ready for the rough road ahead which could get interesting due to the 50ml of rain last night and more expected tonight glad we got a snorkel for the triton!!!
