Still within the King Leopold Ranges Conservation Park we stopped at the Silent Grove campsite and drove to Bells Gorge. Pretty hike in then down some steep rocks for a swim. I'm amazed to see the age of some of the people successfully navigating these tricky pathways. After swimming with frogs and then sunning ourselves on the rocks along with a water monitor it was time to climb back up to the car park. Shame there is no swimming hole at the top! This is ...

Left our commodore and camper trailer at the Broome Army Base and headed north in our trusty 'Thrifty' 4WD. Refueled at Derby before turning onto the Gibb River road around lunch time. For the next 4 hours we bounced our way along the 189km to Mt Hart. Grassy little campsite next to a river with resident freshwater crocs, not that we caught a glimpse of any. Our first attempt at putting up the tent was a bit dodgy but we entertained the other couple of campe...

Canvas seats, planes landing almost on top of you and geckos running amuck on the big screen........added to a great night of entertainment! Kids participated in the Broome sunset series surf carnival held on Cable Beach. As the numbers are small, clubs join together which makes it a very social affair!...

After passing huge road trains which were so wide you had to drive off the bitumen and battling more rain, we finally arrived at Barn Hill Station. It is a working cattle station with 8000 head of cows roughly 120 km south of Broome. We slowly made our way in on a bumpy, dirt road through 3 cattle fences to be greeted at the end by a lawn bowls competition being played by the campers. They put on a roast every Sunday, very organized! Next morning, glorious...

We drove out of Karijini through the Munjina gorge and headed north hoping to leave the rain behind us. Roughly four hours later arrived at Port Hedland in cyclonic conditions. Paid $80 for a powered tent site believing we would be spending the night sleeping in the car. Found a friendly little cafe in the local shopping centre and spent the next couple of hours warm and dry eating burgers and hot chips. Unfortunately, the weather hadn't improved when we ven...
