After leaving Broome we traveled east to Fitzroy Crossing, a quick look at Geiki Gorge and then on to Halls creek. We visited the China wall, a natural rock wall formation of quartz. From there we stayed at yet another beautiful gorge called Saw Pit, east of Halls Creek. 'Ah the serenity'. From there we visited Kundat Djaru aborginal community at Ringer Soak about 170 kms south east of Halls Creek, on the edge of the Tanami desert. The Tourist Bureau man, suggested that we visit it and check out their art work. It was a highlight to visit the community and talk to Rosie a beautiful 80 year old woman who walked around on her knees and painted every day. From there we visited Purnululu National Park, (the Bungle Bungle mountain range). This was staggeringly beautiful. We stood below towering red cliffs soaring 200 meters into the air above us. Camera photo's simply cannot do justice to the scale. As I said to Sophie it is mega normus. We've given you a pictorial sample of our trip so far. From here we're off down the Gibb River road. And will be incommunicado for a couple of weeks.
We are enjoying every bit of God's great creation. I keep thinking of the Psalmist words...
O Lord our Lord how majestic is your name in all the earth! When I consider the work of your fingers... O Lord our Lord how majestic is your name in all the earth. (Psalm 8)
That's it for now from the top end.
Love Peter, Suzie and Sophie.
