We went to Bell Gorge, the rocks were very slippery and the water was cold. When you walked into the water, you slid along the rocks, like a slide, except you are on your feet. Next was Tunnel Creek. You had to take a torch with you to find your way through to the other side. There was a break-in on the roof of the cave and people said on the left after the break-in was crocodiles. But we only saw the eyes of one in the water, then they disappeared. So we went “that’s a crocodile”. At Windjana Gorge we saw lots of freshwater crocodiles. One had its mouth open and we saw one that was 20cm long. It was a baby.

Not much at Derby, only stayed one night, but there were high tides and low tides that could have as much as an 11 metre difference. We went to see the wharf at low tide and there was a boat stuck in the mud. Went to Broome.
