Mini Bungle Bungles in Keep River

14 August

The scenery in the Keep River Park was like mini bungle bungles

After packing up camp we headed back to the Gurrandalng campsite to do the walk from there. The walk was extremely picturesque with an abundance of bird life, pretty flowers and butterflies as we weaved through the incredible sandstone formations.

We did the walk to the top of Ginger’s Hill where we could see fires burning in the distance. It turned out that these fires were at the border crossing so we ended up driving through them later.
We lunched at Cockatoo Lagoon still in the Keep River NP and when we returned to the car to our dismay we discovered we had a flat tyre


So our arrival into Western Australia and Kununurra was a bit delayed, even though we gained an hour and a half in the process.

We didn’t have to spend long at the quarantine station as we had already been warned about what we couldn’t bring into WA so had already devoured everything we couldn’t bring in. Unfortunately though we still had our rubbish from our camping the night before as we hadn’t managed to find a rubbish bin along the way to dispose of it.

By the time we arrived in Kununurra the caravan parks were filling up but we did manage to get a couple of spots in the shade at the Big4 Ivanhoe Village Caravan Resort.

Sunset drinks and dinner at the exclusive Pump House restaurant on the lake to celebrate finally reaching WA and exactly a month after we left home.
