I didn’t get to see much of El Questro the other day because after heading to Chamberlain Gorge first thing I saw that the shackle bolts on the front suspension of the troopy had twisted. I’m fairly sure that it happened when the troopy slid off the hi-lift in Broome when I was working on it. Consequently we skipped a section of El Questro and a few other places and went straight to Kununurra. I have it booked in for tomorrow morning to get it checked and fixed, so we will be back on the road shortly, revisiting the places that were missed last time.

While in Kununurra we stayed at the Hidden Valley Caravan Park and spent most of the time lounging about in the shade. The caravan park backs onto Mirina (Hidden Valley) National Park which we hiked through yesterday afternoon after swimming in the pool.

After packing up the tent this morning we went to the Ord River Dam and lake Argyle, where we spent the afternoon snoozing under the trees. On the way back into Kununurra we drove to the WA-NT border and waved at the Northen Territory. We will cross the border in a few days outside of Halls Creek.

In the mean time we will be staying at Cindy’s friend’s place and I am hoping that the car will be fixed with a minimum of fuss tomorrow.
