Emily and I have decided to stay in Broome until Sunday, and will then be going to Kununurra for two days, and then we will finally get to Darwin! It means we can chill out a bit and get used to the heat before we move on. We have a found a really shady patch for our tent in the campsite, although the tent is now covered in bird droppings! I don't know what the birds are but they are nocturnal and make a right racket - they sound like naughty school children cack...

We arrived in Broome on Saturday evening (13th) after an epic bus journey. The trip was quite comfortable and every time we got off for a rest stop we could tell it was getting warmer and warmer. Broome is in the Tropic of Capricorn and it's really warm - in the low 30s. We are camped right by a beach where we will be able to view Staircase to the Moon tomorrow evening, which I can't wait for. The beach is beautiful and the sea is such a lovely colour. Tonig...

We never actually saw a whale but we saw the splashes which is near enough! It was really rocky and windy but there were some...

It ended up being just me, Ems and Mike the chain-smoking tour guide and he ran off all of a sudden because he saw tracks that could be a snake or a sandgroper (if I was an insect I would q...

Over the last few days Emily and I have cycled around Kings Park and Rottnest Island, and I have turned 23!! On Thursday Emily and I hired bikes and we cycled along the river in Perth to Kings Park, which is at the top of a hill and has lovely views of Perth and the surrounding area. There was a tower to climb that was called the DNA tower because it was made of two spiral staircases twisting around each other like a double helix. At the top there was a man who...
