Cable Beach closed!

I did a wash this morning and fought with the sheets trying to hang them on the line,in what seemed like gale force winds!
Leaving the CP for Broome, we could see the blackest ball of smoke rising into the sky. We tried to drive to the viewpoint at Gantheaume, but this road was closed by police, Cable beach was also closed. We had a picnic lunch instead at the deep water Port. This was also closed for repair, however, there was a steady stream of road trains delivering live cattle for shipment to ?Indonesia.
We met another couple from Adelaide. They live in the hills outside Handorf in a little township that I had never heard of, called Paechtown.
We went to the Malcom Douglas Crocadile Park this afternoon. It was really good.....plenty of nasty crocodiles! They have over 2500 living here, and they apparently produce extremely high quality leather!
The Crows were playing in Perth tonight. Ian watched on his phone. They lost buy 2 goals...but played well!Read more
