Arrived yesterday at Bungle Bungle Station Stay at the turn off to the Purnululu National Park. We were initially unsure of our plan and if we could drive ourselves into the park and once here we were convinced to take the group tour via 4WD bus. This was definitely the right choice. The road in was rough with a few water crossings. Tessie Tourareg thanked us and Jarrod enjoyed a break from driving! Needless to say the Bungle Bungles were beautiful. We walked in...

A drive day today, from Derby to Fitzroy Crossing. Had intended to free camp but for the first day of winter the 36 degree temp was a bit hard to cope with! So we stopped at the Fitzroy River Lodge for green camp sites and a cool pool. A drive into town was fruitless. A public holiday today so nothing much happening. Plenty of locals milling around but seems like it would be a busy place in the peak season.

Said goodbye to Broome and Nan and Pop yesterday. Had such a nice time there and with them we were all a bit deflated to leave. But as always it was good to keep moving. We got into Derby by lunch and it was hot. 35 degrees. So once we set up we had a quick drive around to look at the Prison Boab Tree, the longest trough and a couple of local art centres before we needed to find a pool. No pool at the caravan park but the local pool is nearby and lucky for us was...

So this last week has been in Broome. We were all eagerly awaiting this stop and the arrival of Nan and Pop, familiar faces from home. We arrived into Broome on Saturday and they arrived in on the Monday to big hugs and excitement from all. They were generous enough to have Tully sleep over in their apartment on night 1 and in his words upon seeing their pool "This is awesome, I'm going to love this" so he happily went off, allowing Jarrod and I the opportunity t...

Another decent drive today to get to Barn Hill Station. About 140km south of Broome. We decided to push further these last few days to keep a couple of days ahead of schedule thinking we might need a couple of extra days after Broome. Tully has been travelling well and only toward the end of the drive did he get a bit grumpy. He's been good amusing himself in the car, singing, admiring the view and of course tapping away on his iPad. We made it to Barn Hill afte...
