Day 36 - Mathison Rest Area to Kununurra (410kms/4.5hrs) We left the rest area around 8am and weren’t on the road long when we came around a bend and were heading over a bridge when we realised 2 cows were on the left hand side of the bridge. They had no where to go except for straight in front of our car and we couldn’t brake in time so sadly we hit one or maybe both of them. Thankfully both cows ran off and once we could safely pull off the road we found...

We had a lazy morning and Rog washed the car and then we drove to the Zebra Rock Gallery. The items they have made out of the Zebra rock are amazing but very pricey. They had beautiful animal statues, wine holders, jewellery etc. So we had a look around at the beautiful pieces and then we walked down to the jetty so the kids could feed the catfish. It was great and there were lots of catfish. The owners dog came down at the same time and swam with the catfish wh...

After a very tranquil sleep we were up bright and early. We lazed around in our tent and then Rog and I took it in turns to go and enjoy a buffet breakfast at the restaurant. It was so peaceful without the kids sitting outside watching the birds fly around. We checked out at 8am and headed to Zebedee Springs again. There weren't many people there so first we hopped in where we did yesterday and then after Josh hassling us for ages we ventured right up the top an...

We were up at 5am this morning and watched a beautiful sunrise over Lake Kununurra. As we were trying to get ready Bronte was complaining of a soar tummy and she was hot, sweaty and clammy looking (it was bad timing as we were going away today to a remote area). Luckily after 30 mins she was back to her usual self. The kids fed bread to the fish and we left the caravan park around 7am for the one hour drive to El Questro. We had to go through two water crossings ...

252 kms / 3 ¾ hrs We were hoping for a sleep in this morning but unfortunately the kids were up very bright and early and they were very whingy. So we all woke up pretty grumpy this morning plus Bronte broke our new dvd player so that is the 3rd one broken this holiday. We went for a walk to Spring Creek but there wasn't any water in the creek so the kids had a quick play in a big hole which has been dug out by a digger and then we left around 8am. I thin...
