Broome and surrounds [Dateline 29 Aug -  22 Sep 2006]

From Derby we drove on to the west coast and to Broome, where we now have been for just over two wonderful and relaxing weeks. Chris and Bruce are both happy to get a break from driving, and Hege is happy to have long lazy days in the sun. A bit of a holiday in the holiday! Broome is a cute little town of about 14000 people, established through the pearl trade of the early 1900's, now largely relying on tourism. With turquoise water and near perfect weather we can certainly understand its popularity! We have explored a little, done lots of swimming and walking, generally enjoyed ourselves... yes, disgusting, we know.... Have a look at these few photos, we will put some more up in a while, as we have Hege's cousin & co arriving on the 18th of September we will do some more sightseeing then!
