our sunset dinner at Cable Beach Broome

all ready and waiting for their passengers

Sunset on Cable Beach at Broome, they make postcards of just this and we were fortunate enough to be able to sit there, enjoy our chicken and salad with a glass of wine and witness the postcard beauty. 

yes John this was when Lawrie was talking to YOU!!

We had made it to the beach yesterday afternoon however did not know that the sand was so hard even 2wd vehicles could drive down and travel along the 22km of packed white sand.  Needless to say we had to return again so that we too could experience this fun, and we made sure we came prepared with goodies.  Our great position also enabled us to have front row seats for the passing camel parade so more postcard shots.
no need to guess who's glass is on the left!!

you can't ask for better than this

Broome’s streets are lush with vegetation, flowers, palms and green grass covering every park.  Such tropical scenery.

We enjoyed a visit to the Sun Picture Theatre in Chinatown tonight after the sunset and watched Red Dog, a story of a dog from Dampier in WA where there is a statue to honour him.  The story was based back in the late 1970’s and the theatre is of the open air variety with fruit bats flying across the screen during the film.  The highlight however were the two planes that came in to land during the showing.  They were directly overhead, all lights flashing and probably only a few hundred feet above us.  Now that was something you don’t see at Hoyts Gold Class!!

We leave Broome tomorrow and head south towards Port Hedland however we plan to catch up with friends we met in the Flinders who work on Pardoo Station before then, so……the adventure continues.
