Day 12/13/14 July 16-18 Barn Hill to Kununurra

Time was now against us for the arrival at Kununurra to met up with Alan & Alys. I should have remembered that this is Stephen we are talking about.. so instead of four days it took three. We left Barn Hill and headed for Broome, trying to get space here was almost impossible,but we made it and went into town for a quick look around. Found some lovely pearls and a great lunch at the Som Thai just back from China Town.

Spent the evening charging up computers etc as we intended to do two nights of free camping. While packing to leave a Kalamunda car pulled up to talk and they were basically going in the same direction. We pulled into Fitzroy Crossing and so did the Kalamunda couple. We stopped for lunch at the Fitzroy River Counrty Club...interesting and on discussion all four of us decided to press on a little further. 

We ended up at Mary's Pool on Mary River (dry) having past the amazing Boab trees. A lovely night was spent with Derek & Pauline. In the morning Stephen left for his morning meditation, when the paper work was completed, emerging from the drop dunny, he was accousted by an enormous "Hello how are you", from the lady from Sebastian's Butchers in Kalamunda!!!!! As they say, it's a small world!!

We pushed on to Kununurra and got there by early afternoon, just in time to watch the evening birds coming to feed along the banks of Lake Kununurra, a nearly full moon and a beautiful sunset.
