We arrived in Broome earlier than expected and caught up with the Gallagher Family for 3 days. We met the Gallaghers at Karigini - they are from Perth and also travelling around Australia. The kids were soooo happy to catch up with their old friends and just loved hanging out with them.
We spent 5 nights at Palm Grove Caravan Park, a wonderful shady place to revive, cool off in their shaded pool and is just over the sand dunes from Cable Beach. Rod and I got motivated each morning for an early jog before the place heated up and all you could do is swim!!!
We had a few evening outings with the Gallaghers - we caught up with them fishing at Broome Port. Together we watched "How to Train Your Dragon" at the oldest outdoor picture cinema in Australia, sitting back on deck chairs with the occasional plane flying overhead before its landing.... definitely an unique experience!
We also took a picnic dinner down to Town Beach, where we shared a lovely glass (well plastic cup) of red wine before observing the "Staircase to the Moon", a natural phenomenon where a full moon reflects at low tide on the mud flats for an awesome view....
Some times it's the people you meet that can make a point in time special... rather than the extraordinary places you visit.
After the Gallaghers left for Fitzroy Crossing, we relaxed for a few days and shopped for groceries before heading north to the Dampier Peninsula.
