Kununurra

23rd May 2013

Today was a pretty relaxing day, we had breakfast and decided to go to the end of River Farm Rd and looked at the Zebra Stone Gallery.

Zebra Stone is unique to the Kimberley Region and mined just over the NT border and as the name suggest it has beautiful coloured stripes which run through it. We had a look at the gallery, made some purchases and ordered a decadent morning tea of lemon meringue pie and iced coffee, delicious! The kids were also treated to some free Zebra Stone by the owners because they were that well behaved while looking through the gallery, which was very nice of the owners.

We then went across the road to the Iron Art Gallery, which was another nice gallery to look at and it had lots of local icons like Boab Trees & Barramundi, which were made out of iron. After a couple of purchases we made our way back to the Frank & Jackie's place about 2kms away, Chloe wanted to run back, which was pretty impressive given the humidity, which she did in pretty good time.

After lunch, a swim & a bit of relaxing before myself, Rach, Chloe, Mags & Leticia went out to walk through Hidden Valley, which is an area just on the outskirts of Kununurra which has several walks and looks a bit like a miniature Bungle Bungles, which was again pretty special to see.

While we were doing that, Kim took Kaleb fishing in the boat on the Ord which was a good call, as Kaleb caught his first ever Barramundi.

As it was Kim's last night in Kununurra, we cooked dinner for everyone and had another enjoyable night.
