Hi again after being away from reception for four days. After leaving Barradale the nice freedom camp, we travelled through wide open scrubby plains that seemed to go on forever that slowly changed to more greener grassy country but as always brought back to us the huge size of this country. Next camp was at Bullara Station, a working cattle station where you are in the middle of the day to day operations of this large station. The camp area is very basic with i...

Hello all. Well we have really enjoyed Broome but after 5 really great days it was time for new territory. The new houses being built there are a bit different as they are all made of corrugated iron because bricks are too expensive to transport up here and they retain to much heat. The other two things that stood out to me were no spoutings or letterboxs, they use P.O.Boxes due to the high rain fall in the wet season. Our visit was timed perfect as the months ...
