Well we again had another early start today and watched the sunrise over the long stretch of Eighty Mile Beach, a very nice way to start the day. After breakfast the girls wanted to have one last fossick on the beach for shells while we packed up and prepared for the 370km drive to Broome.
Sunrise at Eighty Mile
Well the girls were down there for quite a while and Rach went to get them, only to come back without being able to find them, to say she was concerned was an understatement. So she asked me to take a drive up the beach to see if I could find them. I drove for about 10 minutes without any site and then I saw a little head bob up from the sand dunes, they were hiding from us as they didn't want to leave, cheeky little buggers!!!
Anyway after getting back to camp, finishing packing up and saying our goodbyes to Richard & Chris, where the girls were given 1 more present from Chris, a fish cushion each, we set off for Broome.
We made a quick fuel stop at the Sandfire Roadhouse before making the final trek into Broome.
As we made our way into town, I could feel pain rising in my liver and kidneys as they remembered a boys fishing trip from a few years ago where we spent a week in Broome, I thought I had recovered but maybe not? At least I know this time will be a little different, at least I hope so!
We arrived at 12.30pm and met up with our friend Tanya at Town Beach for lunch. We grabbed some keys for her new house as we are staying with her for a few days to catch up, which we are really looking forward to.
The rest of the day was spent cleaning, doing clothes washing and just relaxing, it is nice to be in Broome!
