We reluctantly packed up from the Bungles and headed to Lake Argyle with a stop off in Kununurra to pick up supplies. It seems each place we visit is equally or more beautiful than the last. Lake Argyle was also spectacular. We went for a walk to the Ord Dam, and I have included some pictures for you ‘dam’ people. The lake is man made and covers 1,000 sq kms. We stayed at the Lake Argyle Tourist Resort, which was a great spot with a fantastic pool overlooking the lake. We spent some time here ‘regrouping’, catching up on washing, and getting rid of some of the red dirt we have collected along the way. We had 2 nights here, then packed up and crossed the border back into the Northern Territory to Katherine where we will sadly say goodbye to our dear friends and continue on the third leg of our road trip, into Queensland.

It was sad to say goodbye to Julie and Brian and our new friends Gary, Matt and Guillaume. We have known Julie and Brian since our school days and it was great recalling memories of our ‘miss-spent youth’ and catching up on the gaps in-between. They have been great fun, and we are now planning our next trip together in 2014.

We travelled back down Stuart Highway – back to Daly Waters Pub to camp the night. We had a great time here, they put on a real ‘stralian’ show with ‘Chilli’ who was a real funny bugger! – it was great fun.
