Aah. Beautiful Broome. It's a great place once you get past the exorbitant pricing & Toyota dealers who can't fit you in. Steve & Yvonne went the Cable Beach route & I went the Town Beach route - haves versus the have nots! At least I have the beach no more than a minute from my camp! We dined at Matso's & experienced a Chango boutique beer (chilli & mango) that was very hot stuff! Has been a relaxing 4 days & now I'm ready to experie...

It's 11 days since last blog & a lot has happened. It is the time it has taken to complete the full length of the Gibb River Road including certain notable diversions. First stop was El Questro, a commercial operation as shown by their ability to extract lot's of tourist cash. Emma Gorge was incredible & made the stay memorable. We camped at Drysdale Station on Kalumburu Road, leaving camper there before continuing on to Mitchell River NP. The occasion...

Slept better but still somewhat fragile - but on the improve. We returned to Kununurra & booked in for a further 3 nights before tackling the Gibb River Road.

Tomorrow we depart for Derby via the Gibb with d...

After registering etc at the Visitor Centre we set up camp in the northern campground (Kurrajong) & planned our activities for the morrow. Early to bed (no fire) means early to rise - about 6am so an early start was made. First we walked to...

Next 2 days were spent taking it easy. Plenty of dips in the pool. I changed cp's 'cos $35 a night was a touch steep. Unfortunately a new problem has arisen. Unable to zip up the cover on the camper. Bought tie-downs to tide me over. Last day in Kununurra before heading into the Bungles we visited Wyndham listed as the 'Top Town in the West'. Not much there but they did have a cafe called the Tin or maybe Rusty Shed. Whilst it is indeed a tin shed it has loads of...
