We rested in Kununurru for four nights and then made our way down to The Bungle Bungles. The road into The Bungles was absolutely horrendous and I would say hands down the worst corregations we have experienced this whole trip. It took us two hours of driving over bumpy, rocky, winding road just to get into The Bungle Bungles national Park. We are all feeling very over bloody corregations! We had planned to stay three nights at The Bungles before heading down to the Wolfe Creek meteor crater national Park. Day one we went for a walk through the Bungles that was 5.2 klm long. It was hot! So hot! So very very hot! We started the walk at 8am because we expected it to be hot but omg it was just sooo hot. Mum and ... read more

We arrived late at Mitchell Falls camp ground. The road in was pretty rough with lots more corregations. The next day we got up early to set off on the walk into Mitchell Falls. It took us an hour and a half and at one point we were hopelessly lost, even with the map, we just couldn't find the markers showing us where the track continues! I think we spent about twenty minutes searching before we finally found it!! The walk into the falls was definitely worth the effort. The falls are just beautiful. When we first arrived mum stayed up the top of the falls because she was nervous about crossing over the rapids above the waterfall to get to the front side of the falls. However, when we got around there Gav went back ... read more

We spent the first night at a great free camp spot on the side of the road. Quiet spot, nice fire, good feed, in the company of people you love, a million stars shining over head, I don't think it gets much better than this! Next day we were up early and headed down to Tunnel Creek.From Geike Gorge we travelled around to Tunnel Creek. This is a spot that the kids were really looking forward to as it involved walking through a cave/tunnel approx 750 metres long. The story behind Tunnel Creek is interesting and made the journey into the Tunnel system even more significant. The cave was used as a hide out during the late 1890s by indigenous freedom fighter Jandumurra. Jandamurra is known to some as a hero and to others as an ... read more

Broome - I sooo could live here! What a beautiful spot it is. We spent the first day by doing some much needed shopping. Mum, Olivia and I took off down to Coles to restock and then into the butcher for more meat supplies. In the afternoon Gav, myself and the kids explored around Broome while mum and dad went to the bank to sort out a card of mums that was being sent there for her. They say that Cable Beach is amongst the top five beaches in the world and I can understand why. It is absolutely beautiful. The water is beautiful. The sand is beautiful, everything is just beautiful! We followed a dirt track right around the headland to the light house and got out to have abit of an explore. Broome is ... read more

We said goodbye to the Olga's and headed down another dusty dirt track towards the west australian border. The maps were out and we realised that we were driving through aboriginal land. Our permits were in place but there was nowhere on the map to camp! Ohhh well we decided to just drive and hope we find somewhere along a dry river bed or something....... Now the real adventure begins!! We were all excited to be heading into the desert and in the direction of the canning stock route! Woooohoooo!! The road out of The Olga's was really good until about 100klms down the road when it was obvious the grader had stopped and the corregations were dreadful! The countryside slowly began to change from the flat, Barron land surrounding Uluru and the Olga's to becoming ... read more
