Day 16 – Broome to Cape Levique

Sorry these photos are a little bit mixed up.

This was the sunset at Cape Liveque




This was when we first hit the dirt going from Broome to Cape Liveque. Nice color huh ?



Can anyone else do this with their nostril ?

Dinner on the boil


Yummmmm .... flesh

This was the church at Beagle Bay











So once again it was Monday morning and some sat on a bus on the way to work and while others were sitting in traffic, Zoe and I were preparing for our trip to Cape Levique. Cape levique is a little settlement about 2 hours north of Broome. Its one of the places along the Kimberly’s that you can actually swim without being eaten by crocs or fatally stung by jelly fish (know here as stingers). It was a 200km drive half of which is pretty rough dirt road. Need I say that the Delica handled it like a boat on the water thanks to the ironman suspension. We stopped at a little church about half was in a settlement called Begal Bay. The church was built in the early 1900’ and has been decorated in mother of pearl shell. Was really pleasant to visit. When we arrived in Cape Levique, we found that there was no availability for campers so we hired a dome tent for the night. Included is you own private little 2sm deck. I enjoyed it as a change from the back of the Delica. Once we were settled in we took a small eski with a few ice cold beers and sat on the lookout of a cliff and marveled at the most amazing sunset on this trip. The sun set behind the ocean creating a fortitude of colours. Back at the dome tent, I got the ol smokey joe out and braai’ed 4 chicken wings and 6 lamb chops. We devowered them off the bbq and made turned the page on what was another day in our adventure.
