Down the Coast

Heading South on our way home. Pardoo Station for 2 nights, very enjoyable and peaceful. Drove to Pardoo creek and the beach is tidal, water a long way out. Dampier for 2 nights, where stayed last year. Exmouth will be our next stop, looking forward to our stay have not been before.

Broome

Had 4 night's in Broome. The caravan park at Cable Beach like a rabbit warren, to big so many vans not our cup of tea!!  Didn't have much luck either, Sunset Bar at Cable Beach had private function the night we went to watch the sunset, next morning went to the Port for coffee and the cafe is closed permanently by the look of it, next option Town beach cafe at Roebuck Bay and guess what closed on Tuesday!! Not happy Jan!!! There are some lovely parts of Broome but.... Crime rate??? We saw the high speed chase over a stolen vehicle, then were in Chinatown where it continued so fortunate no one was injured, what a wonderful job the police do.

Kununarra

Quick stop at  WA border for Quarantine inspection, only couple of veggies and honey to declare.  4 night's in Kununarra, visit to Hoochery for light lunch, Ivanhoe cafe for breakfast, Ivanhoe Crossing and Ord River Diversion dam wall. Beautiful boab in the caravan park. Fitzroy Crossing our stop on the way to Broome for a night. Beautiful sunset at Fitzroy Lodge
