Day 26: The day has arrived! I am up and raring to go at 5.35am. The boys don't know where we are going, but when the bus pulls up at the front of the caravan park, with 'Horizontal Falls Seaplane Adventures' painted on the side, it becomes pretty obvious. We pick up a few other passengers, including our 'new' friends, Bruce and Annie, and we head to the airport. We even have a partial eclipse as a special extra! First time the boys have been on a plane, and i...

Day 25: The heat is full-on here in Broome, so it was another swim to start the day...we could definately get used to that! After refreshing, we headed to the 'pearl merchants' street and partook in the Pearl Luggers Tour, which gave us great history on the pearl divers of Broome. A very interesting tour and gave us more appreciation of the foundations Broome was built on. We then ventured to Port, which is the port of Broome. It was stinking hot, but not all ...

Day 24: Another lazy morning swimming and relaxing in the 35 degrees and 91% humidity! After lunch we head to the famous Malcolm Douglas Crocodile Farm...and we are not disappointed!

The boys went nuts. Harry spoke a hundred miles an hour, calling me from one croc enclosure to anot...

Day 23: Broome. What can I say about Broome? It's a sprawling town of corrugated iron and red dust. And pearl shop, after pearl shop. I think, if you're into fishing in a big way, Broome is your town. Or if pearls tickle your fancy...maybe then. But otherwise I have to admit...I'm a little underwhelmed so far. We went to Cable Beach with all the expectations afforded us from the brochures, and, well, I was a bit disappointed (sorry Broome). Yes, it was 22 miles...

Day 22: I am sitting at the caravan having a cold ale (or two), having washed and hung clothes, made and eaten dinner and got one small, tired boy to bed. We arrived in Broome after a hot drive from Fitzroy Crossing, and setup camp at a lovely caravan park called Cable Beach CP (recommended by the Tourist Info man...he lives here). We are camping here for at least 4 days, which will be a good opportunity to relax and work out what our plans will be as we head ...
