Five more sleeps and we are off to Dundee Beach, sw of Darwin, for a couple of weeks before we head to WA. Will be doing the Bungle Bungles, Derby to do the Horizontal Waterfalls, then to Broome and up to Cape Leveque before heading back to Derby and the GRR, hoping to get up to Mitchell Falls and may be Kalumburu. And if we have time do the Gulf and over to Cairns before getting home by early August.
So if you are over that way to and see the red D.Max and Jimboomba C/T come say hello.

Bruce,Annie Hi,
Now I am jealous.
You guys have planned a great trip there, Enjoy.
If you get to Kalumburu ( I wouldn't miss it or Mitchell Falls) Mc Gowans Is is a good camp spot. Mine Host offers a good day barra fishing.
Have a wonderful trip & see you on the return.
Regards Mike.

Hi Bruce and Anne. That DMAX looks far too clean. We are finally getting to Poeppel Cnr after our first attempt in 2000. Have a good trip.

G`day Annie `n` Bruce,
Long time no see.
We spent a while at Dundee during our trip that included the Gathering at St George.
I presume you will have the fishing gear with you, if so there is a small creek a bit north of Dundee where I had a bit of success. If you would like directions yell out and I will send you a MM.

Enjoy the excursion,

Scrubby.

Hi Scrubby, all sorted at Dundee, staying with my cousin who has a 14 ft tinny and a Bertran 25.
The worry is they have not had a big wet season so the barra are pretty scarce.
Cheers mate and have a good year.

G'day Bruce,

I've been following your Kimberley thread very closely on Myswag as well. We are heading there next year and the thread has given us many ideas to add to our planning. Have a great trip and we look forward to the pictures and stories of places visited.

Cheers

John
