Day 8 Today we left Drysdale Station about 8am and were headed to Mitchell Falls. Started out on the slightly rough road, we drove on this for about 100km until we turned off the Gibb River Road and onto the track to Mitchell River. Well, oh my gosh this road was way rougher, but we have been on rougher when in the Cape in 2009. We travelled about 5km from the turnoff and came to the King Edward River camping ground. We had lunch here and there was a little ...

Day 7 We left El Questro this morning and paid $2.30 per litre for unleaded - almost fainted at the bowser. We were headed for Drysdale Station which was only 4 hours today and should've been easy, but we started off again today with Lucy feeling the dreaded carsickness and not eating her apple again didn't help the situation. We stopped along the way for lunch at Ellenbrae Station which is famous for it's scones and now we know why - the were to die for. The...

Day 6 We decided to stay another night at El Questro which means we had the day to explore around. It is ridiculously hot here and I'm constantly sweating.

Erika and I really wanted to do the guided horse ride around the station, but the horses have been sent back to the Victorian Highlands, so we missed them by a week and we were both a bit disappointed. But instead w...

Day 5 So it turns out my $4 bargain shoes from K-Mart aren't as great as I thought. I got a blister on the top of my big toe a few days ago and woke up this morning with this flaming infection and gimpy limp going on cause I couldn't walk properly. Thankfully Kununurra has a Target Country where I could buy some new shoes and socks. We left Kununurra after we stocked up on some supplies from Coles. While I was in the shops I took a sneaky look at the pink diamo...

Day 4 We've had a huge day today staying in Kununurra to check out the sites. First up we went to the Kununurra Lookout. After a short uphill rocky climb (me carrying an extra 16kgs) it was a very pretty view and all the rocky formations at the top were beautiful and the girls loved climbing and jumping on them, me nervously watching. We then moved on to the Ivanhoe Crossing and it too was very beautiful. We would have liked to drive across it but the road was...
