Fitzroy Crossing WA
Back to travelling Western Australia 2015
Fitzroy Crossing is a small town in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, 400 kilometres east of Broome and 300 kilometres west of Halls Creek. It is approximately 2,524 kilometres from the state capital of Perth.
The photo below is of the old crossing, once it was the only way to go via vehicle to Derby and Broome. The second photo is the river bed but of course in the 'big wet' the water flows.
Two houses at Fitzroy Crossing. It's a nice little town with one IGA Supermarket. Hospital, Court of Law which is being built (a new one).
Part of the Caravan Park. The Amenities being up on the hill, you can just see the building. The drainage from the showers and washing machines comes down the hill, all the way around thus keeping the grass green.

Just up the road, the sunrise the morning we left.
On our way to Broome WA
The boab tree which I posted when travelling.
Nearly to Broome, just 166 kms to go.
This is Willare Bridge where fuel can be bought for the last leg of the journey to Broome.

Kununurra, Western Australia.
Kununurra is a town in far northern Western Australia. It's on the easterly aspect of the Kimberley Region, approximately 37
klm from the border with the Northern Territory.
Kununurra has an abundance of fresh water, conserved by the Ord River Diversion dam and the main Ord River Dam.
Tropical agriculture crops are grown along with Sandalwood. Previous post on Sandalwood at Kununurra [ here ]
Kununurra is 3,040 klm (1,889 mi) from Perth, Western Australia.
We stayed in a Caravan Park for several days in Kununurra.
If we didn't go out in the afternoon I would sit outside under the awning in my new chair bought in Darwin and fall to sleep. It was rather humid and the temperature range was 33 to 35 degC in the day and about 17degC at night.
