• Kununurra and surrounds

    Today was our turn to pack up and leave Lake Argyle - it seemed tougher this time, probably because Centine has found a few fun new skills - screaming, and climbing onto the most precarious spots possible.

    Anyway, a restock at Kununurra, before trying out the local distillery “The Hoochery”. Very impressive set up, and good cakes and rum of course. Rum isn’t really our style though, so a tasting paddle is where our purchase ended… (plus cake of course)

    We stopped at Molly Springs for lunch - a very picturesque little water hole, complete with waterfall. The boys loved it, the girl not as much :-)

    Eventually, time to push on to El Questro. We were in luck, with the road in being corrugated, but not terribly so. The graders had obviously been working hard. The final creek crossing was a bit of fun too.

    Now, set up on a beautiful riverside campsite, we will light the campfire tomorrow. No swimming here though, as the water right in front of the camper may have salt water crocs… eek!

    Max found the words smallest lizard, and has befriended ‘gekky’.
