1 Aug., 2012 - A day in Kununurra

We have gained 90 minutes since leaving the Northern Territory so, although it would have been 8.30am there when we awoke, it was only 7am in Western Australia.

We decided to have an easy first day at the Discovery Holiday Park, catching up with chores & exploring locally.  We did our washing, then went for a walk in the immediate vicinity.








The Park is situated around the edge of a large lake & enjoys a very attractive location.  We skirted the lake's edge, looking at the fish, the birds & a fairly large lizard.  Finally, we followed a road just outside the Park, which led us to the "Pumphouse Restaurant", where we had coffee, & the Kununurra Golf Club, where Bob had a good look round.

On our return to the caravan, we found that Judy & Charlie had also returned from their walk & so we all discussed future plans & places to visit.

We enjoyed my home-made celery soup for lunch, which tasted all the better for knowing that, by cooking the celery, I had denied the quarantine checkpoint official the right to confiscate it.  Lovely to 'get one over' on an officious little person in uniform!

After lunch, we took a trip into Kununurra town, visited the Information Centre & did a little food shopping.  However, a combination of the heat & the time difference had caught up with me & I was glad to return to the Holiday Park & enjoy pre-dinner drinks with Judy & Charlie.
