Broome

Kayaking at sunset

So 'hunky'

Crocodile Hunters

Like a pro

Broome has pretty much tropical weather the whole year round and by the time we made it it was scorchio!!! It's the biggest place on the North coast in this area and is pretty popular. To be honest it was too hot to do much except swim in the jelly fish ridden sea, the freezing cold pool or just sit in the shade! Nic made friends with two seasoned travellers...by the name of Kev and Val...in their EIGHTIES they were staying in our hostel and we so well travelled and had so many stories to talk about as they sat in the bar and knocked back another beer! We went to a crocodile farm, one of the highlights of Broome, which is put together by a less exciting Steve Irwin and but got to see some big Mommas and we got to hold some little crocs! On the last day (in Broome and for Dave) we finished with a kayaking trip at sunset with Nic teaming up with some Lawyer lady and I was stuck with the Crease. who after a few initial mistimed paddles, managed to do pretty well and we made a good team! We watched the sunset from out boat and then as we were paddling back to the beach everything all got a bit wavy and before we knew it the boat in front of us capsized. Just as we hope to get out the way a boat crushing wave comes in and resigned to our fate, Dave simply shouts 'we're going in!' and we rode the wave for a bit but we managed to survive and make it to dry land. Probably because of me. Ha ha!
