Broome. It's hot.

Location: Broome Caravan Park, Broom, Western Australia

Kms so far: 21,144

So we are in Broome. We left Perth on the 29th of August, spent 9 odd days getting up here in a mad rush, then flew back to Melbourne for a couple of weddings. Those nine days were fairly eventful, including two boggings (at the same place!), one broken laptop screen (now fixed), one broken stove (now replaced), one broken radiator grill (now cable tied), one broken tent pole (not fixed, yet...) and one flat tyre (changed).

We've covered some pretty amazing places, including:

Shark Bay (Francis Peron National Park)
Ningaloo reef
Karijini National Park
The Pinnicles
Kalbarri National Park
Overlander Roadhouse (best sausage roll ever. $4 and it was as big as your head!)

It was pretty awesome going back to Melbourne for a flying visit, catching up with everyone and seeing Russ, Elissa, Stick and Caz tie the knot. Obviously, not all together. That kind of open relationship is not legal in Victoria as far as I know...

The next bit of the trip holds some pretty interesting ground to cover. First, Cape Leveque north of Broome. Then off to Derby and on to the Gibb River Road, straight through the guts of the Kimberly. It promises to be Gorges-a-plenty.
