Arrival and stay for the next month in Broome



On Wednesday around midday we arrived in Broome. We had made around 2.100 kms in seven days of driving. Broome is a really nice town, it's much nicer and even more relaxed than Darwin. Since we are there we visited some lonely beaches, went fishing, saw the staircase to the moon and the markets, took part in a concert of the Shinju Matsuri festival (= the festival of the pearl). I am working as a kitchenhand again but it is only few hours this week. Hopefully they have some more work next week or I have to find another job. The sunrises and sunsets in Broome are amazing. The sky is unbe-lievable red... We watched "Ten Canoes" (an Aboriginal movie) at the Sunset cinema which is the oldest running outdoor cinema in the world. Because the airport is so close to town the airplanes fly really low. It was such a fun when an airplane flew very close to the movie screen. We started laughing really loud and everybody was staring at us. On October 2nd Tine will be arriving in Broome and because the airport is so close I think I will pick her up by walking to the airport, just to be able to say that we could walk from the airport ;-)! Then we will be travelling the next three weeks to Perth, hopefully find some nice spots and drink some beers together.
