Del's inbuilt alarm clock got us up at 3.00am this morning. Breakfast and trailer packing takes around 2 hours, so we were ready to leave at 5.00am.
Getting out of the rest area was challenging - pitch black, a 1km winding, unsealed road with numerous cul-de-sacs. Thank heaven for Del's navigation skills!
Made great progress in spite of several long, gradual inclines.
Entering West Kimberley region now - fewer, smaller crumbling hills shaped by time and erosion.
Arrived at Fitzroy Crossing at midday and located the IGA! Called in for cold drinks.
Ian, a dentist at the hospital and Phil, in his camper, stopped and gave us donations. Sincere thanks to you both.
Took a room in the caravan park for 2 nights. Decided that it was time we had rest day.
The motel rooms are raised 3m off the ground to guard against flooding. We had to haul the bikes and trailers up a flight of 14 stairs! The things you do!
