Pentecost

+

 Our little fisher boy, at the Pentecost in the Kimberley.He would fish for 3 and fourhours in 40 + heat in the middle of day as thats when the tides were right.  He has been well rewarded.

A car that was being towed after a trip up to Mitchell Falls. We did not make the trip up the Kalumburu track. We saw too many cars like this and the road apparently is the worst its been for 35years according to locals.

River crossing at Manning Gorge kept the kids amuzed for hours. This was the short cut to the gorge.

More pics

As you can see Murray has finally slowed down. We are visiting some beautiful places. This is bell gorge in the Kimberley. We have been travelling forna couple of weeks with another family from Cairns. They have a 5 and an 8 year ld and have been great company.
The Gibb RR was great but very hot and we blew a tyre after about the forst 10 km. Today we are heading up to Cape Leveque from Broome to Gambanam, a small aboriginal community where we are going to stay for a few days. The kids had a lovely camel ride along cable beach in broome yesterday. Will send pics later. If anyone is reading this and you havnt sent me your email address can you please do so as I have lost them all.im trying very hard to catch up so things might be all over the place a bit.

Gibb River Road pics

Hi Everyone, Sorry its been so long since we posted but we were out of range whilst coming accross the Gibb RR and then our pc was dropped and weve had to organise a new one. I will just post a heap of pics. From Wyndham , flat tyre, Broome etc. Sometimes I cant believe we are in Australia.

Darwin

Rumour has it that our dam should have quite a bit of water in it when we get back. We actually only ended up getting to Darwin yesterday. We spent 3 days in Litcfield national Park. Very pretty. Did you ever go travelling to Europe and got to the stage where it was like Oh Yeah another Castle or just another ancient ruin? Its getting a bit like that with swimming holes and waterfalls.God dont I sound ungreatful, But thats what its like here. We have swum in one beautiful place after another. 
Have a picture of sunset over yellow waters in Kakadu, Ivy beside a giant termite mound and will at an old homestead (4wd and 2 river crossings to get here) and some poor woman brought up 14 kids here in the early 1900's. Doing all the touristy things in Darwin (and expensive). The kids went swimming with crocs today, granted there was a nice heavy piece of glass between them. They had a ball, I will try and post some pics of that soon.
Thanks for all your comments on the blog I love reading them so keep them coming.
