We go exploring on our bikes in the early evenings when the days become a bit cooler. We decided to ride into Broome town one morning and discovered that it was a bit further away than we thought. Gosh, did we come back drenched - not from a rain storm! Chris was desperate. I seem to manage the humidity a bit better than him. Luckily we've had some gorgeous rain which cools everything down for a short while.
Chris isn't too keen on the heat and humidity but luckily we have a gorgeous, tropical pool that is a few meters away from our caravan!!
We drive our car onto Cable Beach - definitely one of the most beautiful beaches in the world - to see the sunsets and the camels. The lines of camels against the sunset are beautiful and it's everyone's aim to get the BEST "camels at sunset" pictures.
We seem to often bump into The Extraordinary Taxi Ride making it's way through WA. There's always much action with TV cameras and crew all over the place.
We've been very busy!!! We've visited some beautiful pearl shops, been for a ride in a hovercraft (Chris's passion), visited Aboriginal art galleries, had delicious ginger-beer at the Broome brewery, had coffee in the Turkish Kebab shop with the most amazing photographs on the wall, stroked a python and chatted with a wildlife officer who rescues native animals and showed us her baby fruit bat and 2 week old rare, nail tailed wallaby, walked in a beautiful garden called "Buddha's Sanctuary" with an amazing carving of the female Buddha, had our American friends over at our place for dinner - South African sausage, we called it, made and bought in Broome. They loved the Broome boerewors!
We've just been having a ball!!! If you haven't been to Broome you should come - anytime after mid-May until end Oct. The red cliffs, mud and tidal flats, azure seas, frangipanis and boab trees are a sight to behold!
The people here are great too.
