Following almost a week of lounging around Broome: dining in Chinatown, lazing on beaches, inspecting pearls (one too many for Adrian’s liking), sunsets on Cable Beach and tours of crocodile and pearl farms; we hit the road again. Firstly onward to Derby where there were no horse races, then Windjara Gorge and now Fitzroy Crossing in the heart of the Kimberley.
The scenery has changed with majestic boab trees dotted along the highway and savannah grasslands. The gorges that we have seen so far have been breathtaking and have the added bonus of crocodiles sunning on the banks and swimming in waterholes. (Look closely in the pic and you might see a croc)
Whilst in Fitzroy Crossing we’ve: been to the Rodeo; taken on a boat cruise up Geikie Gorge; and done some short walks in the national park. Adrian tried his hand fishing for Barra but without luck. The locals say they really bite in the warm weather but seeing it’s been in the low thirties, it’s far too cold.
