Beautiful Broome

Friday 20th August
We stopped at a roadhouse for petrol and lunch, and were very excited to see our friends from Elquestro who are traveling in the other direction! We had a great chat about our adventures, then said waved goodbye.
The road trains never fail to amaze us:





I guess our first impression of the famous Cable Beach in Broome is no different to anyone else's. Grant and I have travelled quite a lot, and seen beautiful beaches all over the world...but this one must rate as one of the best. The dazzling powdery white sand, red cliffs, clear azure waters...and that endless sky....just gazing at the horizon here is mesmerising. We spent the first 3 nights at the Cable Beach caravan park. A bit of a walk to the beach...so we were thankful for our bikes! This park has the most beautiful shady sites...but not if you turn up without a booking in August. We ended up on white gravel beside the camp kitchen (this was great) and in full sun. We couldn't enter the tent during the day as the temperature in there was easily over 50degrees! In the end it didn't matter much, we spent all of our time at the fantastic pool, or the beach, or exploring this fascinating town.










We even took the car for a beach drive:



We have heard the weather isn't too great in Melbourne...it's hard for us to imagine...day after day of perfect sunshine and blue skies...and loving it!
