Hi
all
Late again with Blog but we have been out in the sticks in WA
On
the way to Kununurra we stopped in at Lake Argyle, We had a look at
the dam wall and surrounding area and did the Sunset cruise on the
dam, where we saw lots of fresh water crocs and other wild life.
We
had a good look round Kununurra and Wyndham the highlights were The
Grotto Prison Doab Tree, Five Rivers Look out, Emma Gorge Zebeedee
Hot Springs and we touched the Gibb River Road but it was too rough
turn back after 200 meters.
Then
we drove to the Spring Creek free camp where we took a helicopter
fight over the Bungle Bungles better than driving over the very rough
road, Lee enjoy the helicopter fight may because I was in the next
Helicopter and not in hers.
Then
we head down the Highway to Halls Creek and Fitzroy Crossing where we
dropped of the caravan off at the caravan park and went down to Geike
Gorge for the river cruise the scenery was wonderful, we had Barra,
Chips and Salad from the Pub, it was nice but only a small serve for
$15 each.
Next
stop was Derby and visited Windjana Gorge and walked close to crocks
on river bank, the next day we took the seaplane from Derby to the
Horizontal falls which was awesome and then had a Barra Lunch then
more runs thought the falls and a river cruise then sea plane back
to Derby, end of a Fantastic day out. Even meet up on the trip with
Ron Atkins and wife some of you may know him from the Forrestfield
days.
We
head for Broome but parked caravan at Roebuck Roadhouse which was
30km from Broome and took day trip into Broome, we had a good look
around the Broome highlight. On the last day we were heading back to
the caravan a noticed a large plum of smoke on the horizon which was
the bush around the Roebuck roadhouse and it was still burning as we
drove in No damage to any caravan as the Ses guys hose down all the
vans .
Then
down the road to Port Hedland and Karratha the gas plant was well
worth a look then when to Dampier to see the statue of Red Dog by the
info board.
Visited
many bays on the way down to Exmouth and did some great free camps

Sea Plane from Derby to Horizontal Falls
The water goes in on the high tide between two breaks in hills and then comes out when tide drops
Lee, would not get in the other side of the cage where the Sharks were
Rob Atkins and his wife Anne with the both of us, what a surprise and shock to see him on the bus on pick up from our Caravan Park
Not a lot of room between the wall of the horizontal falls
