MANGO HARVEST!! We get together with the Hadfields and Nikki Alexander and pick some of the mangos down at "swim beach". Funnily named "swim beach" when there are crocs of both varieties in there. Not really a great place to swim. But a great place to harvest mangos!! Cindy checks with the council and you have permission to pick mangos off public trees!! Nikki borrows a "mango picker" which helps us get the high ones. Or you can jump on the top of your ute like Tim and grab them from there!


















We have a look around a zebra rock place called STONECRAFT. They also do cafe food, and yummy cappucinos.
Jake and lauren are working on their Zebra rock creations.





Jake and his mate Wesley Hadfield. He had a sleepover with Wes and his family. They watched movies and ate "chip buddies", went to the local pool and had a great time.

Sights around Wyndham.... Lauren likes to break the rules and sits on the Big Croc statue.
This Boab is suposed to be the biggest in Australia?? Not entirely sure about that one. This view is overlooking the Wyndham Jetty.
And this house? HMM? Its sitting on pallets to keep it off the ground?










A day at Wyndham









Here we are at the Croc Farm at Wyndham, which is 101ks from Kununurra. The croc farm is fairly run down, and very casual. We turn up and the guy at the desk says he' not doing tours today cause he's done his leg in! Okay says I,"how much for the "no tour" tour"
Was $48 reduced to $30. Bargin!
Then we are 1/2 way round the park when another fulla comes up to us and tells us he is going to do the croc feed tour! Bonus.
The croc enclosures were green with slime and some pens seemed fairly small for the old dinosaurs.
Some of the salties were starving and made for an entertaining feed time, others could care less and barely moved in the heat of the day. Don't blame them really. Its HOT.

Fishing the Pentecost River for Barramundi. It was a 40degree day and we were searching for the nearest tree. No luck with with mighty Barra however.
The lovely green grassy shots of pool and playground are of Home Valley Station where we stayed the last night of camping on the Gibb River Road. It was very nice but very pricey!

















More shots of the stunning
scenery around these Cockburn
Ranges. Some sights are more
stunning than others however!!!

Check out our good friends - the Smiths who have a blogsite with some photos of what we've been up to together in our time at Kununurra at
