| The end of the Gibb River Road what an amazing adventure! |
 |
| Here’s we are with our friends Jay and Michelle on our last night travelling together at the Daly Waters Pub. It was a night to remember with lots of dancing and celebrating after 3 weeks of red dirt and corrugations! |
 |
| Our fishing charter awaits at Honeymoon Bay...... |
 |
| Firstly we caught live bait from the beach with “Geoff” one of our aboriginal guides. |
 |
| Then the fun begins as we caught fish.... |
 |
| ....after fish. |
 |
| Tac catches a small fish and as he winds in a big cod takes the small fish. |
 |
| I finished the day with a beautiful big Golden Snapper or otherwise known as Fingermark. |
 |
| Our catch at the end of 3 hours. Not a bad mornings work for Jay, Tac, Michelle and I! |
 |
| On the drive out to Kalumburu we faced a few river crossings with crocodile warnings. Best not to stop in the middle!! |
 |
| Our camp spot with the fisherman’s hut overlooking the beach at Honeymoon Bay 30km north of Kalumburu. |
 |
| The view of Honeymoon Bay from our bed in our camp trailer. |
 |
| This is Roger from the community at Kalumburu where we purchased one of his paintings. |
 |
| Some of the rock art on our trek out to Mitchell Falls. |
 |
| One of the amazing views along the way....... |
 |
| .......until you reach the finale the very famous “Mitchell Falls”. It was a long 2.5 hour journey in our 4wds to do only 70kms as the road in was heavily corrugated! |
 |
| We finished the Tanami and headed West through Fitzroy Crossing and then back out on the dirt once more towards the Gibb River Road. |
 |
| First stop was Tunnel Creek with a very unique underground cave. It was a bit scary walking through the creek in the darkness of the cave. |
 |
| Manning Gorge was definitely a highlight. We took a swim in the cool water. |
 |
| Another picturesque shot of the gorge. It is a truly spectacular spot on the Gibb. |
 |
| Camping along the Tanami Road with our friends Jay and Michelle. It is our first night travelling together on a 3 week adventure. |
 |
| Tac and Jason are covering up our back broken window on the canopy after a rock smashed it! |
 |
| Our second day on the Tanami Road brings us to the famous Wolfe Creek Crater. |
 |
| We climbed to the rim and checked out the huge size! |
 |
| We also visited Ormiston Gorge and..... |
 |
| ....Ellery Creek Big Hole in the MacDonnell Ranges. |
 |
| This is Albert Namatjira’s house who is the famous Aboriginal painter. |
 |
| Not far up the road is Palm Valley in the Finke Gorge National Park. |
 |
| The rim walk around the top of Kings Canyon.... |
 |
| .....was breathtaking!! |
 |
| As you can see the views were mind blowing. |
 |
| Some of the cliffs were sheer drops and I didn’t want to get too close to the edge! |
 |
| We finished travelling the Great Central Road which brought us to...... |
 |
| ........Kata Tjuta (The Olga’s)..... |
 |
| ....and Uluru (Ayers Rock). It was great to see both of these amazing landmarks for a second time. |
 This gorgeous dingo was wandering around camp and loved having her photo taken. We could have patted her but they are a wild dog and it is not allowed. Their howling during the night is something we love to hear. |
