2010 cont Mitchell Plateau, Port Warrender, Kalumburu

Bougainvillea at Kalumburu the colors are wonderful against the blue, blue sky.
Inside the church at Kalumburu the service was amazing all the locals sang and interacted with each other and us it really was a lovely experience the kids are just so gorgeous.

Guess who at Kalumburu


Moon rise at Kalumburu, the fences are to keep the wild horses out of the area where you camp.



One of many boab trees that you see in this area, looking out over the bay




Port Warrender one of many beautiful sun-rises how come we get up so early??





View driving into Port Warrender little did we know that the road from here on in was really on a very rough track this is one of their clay/salt/mud flats where nothing much grows






Another beautiful place called Surveyor's pool that we visited along the way.







Here's proof not a good photo but we where there, at the moment it feels like a million years ago instead of a few weeks.








Here they are the spectacular Mitchell Fall's we finally made it most amazing sight it was worth every hard yard as they say.









Creek crossing on our way into Mitchell Fall's it's a two and half hour walk longer if you take your time and enjoy the scenery which of-course we did.










I'm back we are actually in Broome not so the blog is well behind but the internet service up here is not so hot. These photos are from Mitchell Fall's area and then onto Kalumburu which is a mission run by the Benedict Monks and it is also an Aboriginal community. We loved both places and in-between we went to a more remote place called Port Warrender and stayed over-night it was a bit of an adventure getting in there the last eight kilometers took us over an hour so slow going very rough but great fun.
