With 400klms to drive today we left at 0745 with a nice little tail wind to assist us with getting to Broome and the beach. Not too much happens on the road unless you run into some strange people when you stop at some of the roadhouses or rest stops. Today we didn't find too much traffic on the road except for the odd road train. We continually run across these boab trees but as we can't stop on the side of the roads to take photos this was a great opportunity to photograph one. This tree was huge and one of the biggest we have spotted whilst driving across the top. From here we still had 200ks so it was back behind the wheel and get going to Broome. We finally made it into town and as everything in Broome is booked out we had to stay in a unpowered site until Thursday. We dropped the van and headed down to Cable beach and got a bite to eat. Yep picked up some bait and headed down to try and catch some fish. I can't beleave that there are no fish in such a big sea. Anyhow I fished and Gabriella relaxed and we then watched the sunset over Cable Beach. We decided to go for a walk and get a coffee at 0730pm but it seems all those old people go to bed early so everything closes. Well it was a good walk I probably needed it. Well that's it for today, tomorrow it's down to the mechanics to have the car serviced and have a look around Broome before getting some sun.
