We are in Derby then head off to Broome on Saturday. Looking forward to it!! Still not rain yet! I don’t want to jinx us, but we havent had one drop of rain. The days are cooling down, around the 37/38 now which is so much more comfortable. We are in Broome for the week, so we have plenty to do! Camel Riding, boating and also drive up to Cape Leveque to get amongst the Bucaneer Archipaelego. There is also the big Mango festival on in Broome this weekend so we are hoping to eat as many mangoes as we can find |

We are in Kununurra this weekend then head off to Halls Creek on Sunday then onto Derby. We are getting apprehensive about the Wet Season as everyone is warning us that we may get flooded in! So if you don’t hear from us next Thursday you know that is what has happened! The days are getting hotter and more humid, if that’s at all possible. We are all looking forward to seeing the stunning landscape of the Kimberleys and the rich Aboriginal heritage in the area. |

In Darwin, catching a day trip over to Tiwi Islands and Sheree has supposedly booked me in to swim with the Crocodiles, down the main street of Darwin. We are going to take a few days off to re-charge the batteries and catching up with family who live in Darwin, which is always nice. Then we head off on a 7 hour drive to Timber Creek as we head into the Kimberleys. The humidity is hitting around 95% so we are sweating our butts off and with no aircon in our Jeep, it makes it all the more tougher! |

We head off to Borroloola from Mataranka, to try our hand at fishing for Barramundi! Then to Katherine to visit the Cutta Cutta Caves. We are now in the Kakadu, a totally different kettle of fish, mind the pun, a beautiful tropical landscape totally out of this world. The days are getting very hot and very long. And we didn’t win any money on the Cup either....no TABS out here, but we did have our Satelite Phone to place bets! The Hot Springs, yes I know that sounds funny for this part of town, but they are truly sensational. Like an oasis in the desert. |
