Hi everyone
Have spent the last 3 days relaxing in Kununurra..we cannot believe the changes since we were here 4 years ago. Weather is absolutely gorgeous.. around 27c during the day with magnificent blue skies with temperature dropping down to 22c in the evening. Have spent pleasant evenings joining the other campers cooking dinner in the community kitchen..exchanging travel stories.
Visited the Mirima (Hidden Vallley)National Park today..Locals call it the mini "Bungle Bungles".. very beautiful and went down to the Zebra Rock Gallery... this being the only area where Zebra rock is found in the world...quite unique, the rock having a ceiling date of 1200 million years.They make many beauiful things out of this rock including lovely pieces of jewellery.
Tomorrow we are heading off to the Gibb River Road with first stop at El Questro for 3 nights.. this begins the real "off road" adventure...keeping our fingers crossed that we will be able to cross the rivers and that the unseasonal rain has finished. (You hear all sorts of scary stories). This will also mean that we will not have internet access for about a week.

Till next time.
Kath & Henry
