A very leisurely start to the day after over
a week’s travels. A day to catch up on washing, relax and get in a bit of
sightseeing in before a huge day on the road tomorrow. First port of call was
The Malcolm Douglas Wilderness Park; with all the normal croc’s, snakes and
birds. Second stop for lunch was The Mango Place; wine, slushies, chutneys etc.
Back into town for a look over 2 restored pearl luggers and a wander through
China Town. Broome was originally founded in the late 1880’s as a pearling port
and has a rich history surrounding this industry. Back at camp we had a
refreshing swim and spent an hour on the internet trying to update my travel
blog. Their wireless connection was so darn slow and then couldn’t copy from Word
into the blog. Got Wendy’s laptop and by the time that was connected and we
were able to start the time and the battery both expired. Hopefully we’ll get a
chance in Port Hedland to update the blog. We took a trip down the road to
Cable Beach to watch an awesome sunset and to walk along a beautiful white
sandy beach and even paddle in the Indian Ocean. We went back to camp for
dinner before heading to the opposite side of Broome to Town Beach (where we
were the previous evening) to again watch the “Staircase to the Moon”. Although
there were no clouds, the phenomenon wasn’t as impressive or as noticeable as
it was the previous night.
