What can we say? It's all about the shells really. Millions of them! What a beautiful stretch of the WA coastline this is. We've got hot summer days, cool nights which is great for sleeping, amazing sunsets over the Indian Ocean and this huge expanse of beach and sea.

On the way here from Broome, we spent a night at a place called Port Smith Lagoon. This was an interesting stop as at the moment they have 'spring tides' which are the 9-10 metre ones and we walked through the mangroves and across the mudflats of the lagoon to see the sunset. Then within 6 hours the place is full of water!
For the 6 or 7 weeks we've been in the Kimberley, we've found ourselves singing James Blundell's "Kimberley Moon" many times. There's a line in there that resonates very strongly ... "have you ever had that feeling of not a care in the world and so free, that not a thing can go wrong, the days are never too long and the nights are too perfect to believe". That about sums up our experience so far.
