Another early start (7.30am) with a 6km walk through Windjana Gorge. We had started the walk the day before but decided to come back the next day and do the whole walk. We saw lots of wildlife including crocs, birds and bats. The gorge is very picturesque but not as dramatic as some of the others. The towering rocks above are very imposing. The kids enjoyed the croc spotting until we decided to deviate from the path and return walk along the beach. We came across a rather large croc (freshwater) sunning himself on our side of the river bank. He was quite happy to pose for pictures with the kids and at that point we decided to return to the path some distance away. After the gorge walk we headed to Broome via Derby hungry for some greasy deep fried food. Unfortunately the $13 cheesburgers didn't quite hit the spot and it was quite obvious that the locals enjoy this high tourism time of the year as all of the prices had been rubbed off the menu at the takeaway shop. Highly unlikely we will ever visit Derby again. Looking forward to taking it easy at Broome and catching up with washing etc. We are also hoping we will be able to find accomodation as we haven't booked anything.
