Barn Hill Station to Cable Beach

Day 129 - Barn Hill Station to Cable Beach

Barn Hill Station, Broome, Cable Beach, Broome

Monday, 27 May 2013
Up early, had breakfast and packed up. Took Tuka for a walk around the camp. Said goodbye to Joanne, Allan and Winston and we were on our way again. On the way out to the highway I saw a Kite sitting on top of a tree and I was able to photograph it.

Arrived at Broome midmorning. I did some grocery shopping and walked around the streets of Chinatown with Tuka. Broome is a tourist town with plenty of tourists, an easy going feel and reasonable prices. Plenty of aboriginals wandering around during the day.

Drove over to Cable Beach as it was a hot day and Tuka needed a swim but the main part was not dog friendly. Went out to Gantheamue Point for the view and the dinosaur footprints. It was high tide and you need low tide to see the footprints - another time. Had lunch and then drove to the Visitors Centre.

Booked into Tarangau Caravan Park at Cable Beach. One of the few caravan parks that has a single person rate. Usually only take small dogs but Tuka was ok because of his age. I was given a fairly shady spot which was lucky as it was the last unpowered site available. Set up camp and took Tuka for a walk.
