Tues. 14th Aug., 2012 - Settling in at Broome

We had a very "domestic" day - did our washing, changed the bed, swept & washed the caravan floor & dusted everywhere.  We couldn't believe how much dirt & dust had found its way inside the van but we should have known, as it's so dry here at present & our door, windows & roof vents are nearly always open.

Bob & Charlie noticed a lady cutting people's hair on site, so they both went & had theirs cut.  Her prices were very good, so I went to see her, too.  I'd had some extortionate quotes for hairdressing when we went into town yesterday, so decided to take a chance with the on-site lady.  She cut my hair really short & only charged me $15!  Although it's shorter than I've ever had it cut before, I like it & so does Bob - it's trendy & like Denise Welch's (the former Coronation Street star).  You can't have hair that needs constant attention when you're travelling so, having it all cut off is the simplest solution.



Bob has just worked out how many kilometres we've travelled to date - 8,201km (5,096 miles) & we're probably about half-way through our trip.

Nothing more to report today; hope to start exploring in & around Broome tomorrow.

  1. Love the haircut Liz. Wishing I had the courage to have mine cut. We are actually experiencing some HOT weather at the moment. It has hit 30 degrees today. Really too warm for me, I don't 'do' heat!

    1. Thanks for the compliment, Jacky. I was a bit nervous about the hair cut at first but am getting used to it now. Now I know what an easy life men have - they just walk out of the shower, towel-dry their hair & that's it! Wish I'd done this years ago - it sure would have saved me a lot of money at the hairdresser's. Don't cut yours - it's so lovely & thick; it would be a shame. Enjoy the hot weather.
