Arrived last night in Kununurra after 3 lovely days in the Bungle Bungles. The weather slowly cleared so that we had sunny days their, but not too hot for doing the different walks. We heard that the Tanami was closed the day after we finished it so we were lucky to get across. We met another couple in Halls Creek, Craig and Louise with their boy Sam who joined us for a few nights and also met the Cracknells for our time in the Bungles which was lots of fun. The Bungles were as spectacular as expected, even more so and probably the highlight todate. We did the walks in the mornings and hung around the campsite in the afternoons. The boys all had lots of fun together but it was difficult to get homework done in the Bungle Bungle primary. The Cathedral Gorge, Echnida Chasm and Mini Palm Valley were all stunning. The photos don't do them justice. The walks were relatively easy and despite their being a lot of people it didn't feel crowded when we were wandering around.

At Echnida Chasm, who should we bump into but the Canny's and another couple from Red Hill. Great to see them and catch up on their trip which sounds like they're having lots of fun.

Kununurra is a lovely town, where we get to do lots of washing :) and stock up before heading down the Gibb Rd, now known as the Gibb River Highway. W're camped by the Ord River which is beautiful and may have our first trial of the boat (in croc infested waters). Hoping to head out down the Gibb River with the Cracknells which will be fun. Luke gets to visit a Dr as we suspect he may have Giardia, courtesy of drinking out of some of the water holes...otherwise we all fit and healthy. 9 squares on the blanket!
