Swept Up in Broome

 Or should I say sweated up in Broome?  We arrived in Broome, WA late in the morning.

Broome is in the Kimberly region of Western Australia which was appropriate since today was our daughter-in-law Kimberly's birthday, at least in the US.  Since we had been to Broome in 2017 and done the highlights of Cable Beach and Gantheaume Point (and the dinosaur footprints) then,we decided to make it a simple day.  Did I mention that it was hot, humid, and sweaty in Broome?  After clearing Australian immigration on the ship, we were able to take the shuttle bus into town at about noon.  Just in time for lunch.  After a quick look around, we headed for our target lunch spot.

It was a hot walk which made the hard lemon at Matso's quite refreshing.  And the food was good as well.

After lunch, we trekked back to town to check out more aboriginal art.  I had to climb the red sand dune along the way.

We saw some nice art and bought a little wedding present for Bryn and Bella, 2 of the entertainers on board who are getting married next month.  And we bought earrings and a pendant for Linda! 

So, it was a hot but simple and successful few hours in Broome.  Sometimes, simple is simply the best.  Tonight we head off for 2 sea days before arriving in Geraldton.

One other note - they picked up quite a load of fresh fish in Bali which we have been enjoying the past 2 nights, particularly last night when it was grilled to order out on the rear deck of the Terrace restaurant.  Fresh barramundi and tuna - yeah baby!

Tonight, we'll do it again.

Peace and blessings,

Linda and Larry
