We had a very late start having been told by
today’s navigator the night before that we were all to have a sleep in. – Thank
you Kath. J
Back 20km from camp to the main road along a
long sandy road, turn left, increase speed to 100km, a few slight bends, flat,
flat road, continue on and on for another 160km. Oh, we did pull over once to
let a wide load go through. Not looking forward to the return trip back to Port
Hedland along the same tedious road for 615km. We had lunch and a brief look
around Broome before shopping and finding a camp ground at Cable Beach. At sunset we headed to the night markets at
Town Beach where we hoped to see the “Staircase to the Moon”. This is a natural
phenomenon which occurs for 3 nights each full moon. The moon rises and its
reflection over the water and sand looks like a staircase leading up to it.
Unfortunately cloud obscured most of the spectacle so it was back to camp for a
late dinner.
