Racehorse camp of the Halters in Kununarra, Western Australia



Our first stop in Western Australia was Kununarra. We arrived there Wednesday night and were searching for the camp at nighttime. Finally and with the help of a kind farmer we found the camp and surprised the people there. They were really exhausted because they had been fighting huge bushfires the whole night before. In the camp there were our Howard Spring farmers Margaret and Bevan with family and friends in their racehorses camp. The camp was directly at the racecourse, in the background there were some mountains which looked beautiful. During the day we did some excursions with David and Warrick: a dam and Valentine Springs (a swimming hole). We also cared for the racehorses, played cards, cooked, talked, went fishing on the river with Bevan etc. On Sunday around midday we left Kununarra to drive to Lake Argyle.
