Is 4 weeks long enough

G'day Bob,

Will take you a week there normal driving and a week back with not too many stop overs in between. And then you can have two weeks loafing on the beaches at Broome. Yeah it can be done in a month and have a relax along the way.

Puddin,
I will be doing the Kimberley trip in 26 days. Leave Alice and head for Halls Creek, then to the Bungles for a couple of days. Kununurra for a couple of days before heading off to El Questro. Gibb River road to Drysdale River Station then to Mitchell falls. On the way back to Derby time is spent checking out the Gorges then a couple of days in Broom. Cape Leveque for another couple of days before we head off to Fitzroy Crossing. From there you are on the black top and a good run to finish inKatherine. This is a rough plan but the trip can be done in 4 weeks with plenty of time to look around.

Puddin,

I wouldn't do it in less than 6 weeks but then I can't do the long drives like I know you can so 4 weeks would probably be OK. I (unfortunateley) flew to Broome a couple of months ago and then Cessna's over some of the Kimberleys Cape Levaque etc. One thing I learned was Jeez .........it is a big area and a long way from home so when I do it in the preferred method of transport (4WD) I will do it in a big trip as I probably would only get the chance once.

Personally I would give Broome a miss altogether, to me it was just a long beach, with camels. MOTH went to a local wharf there and caught a hugh fish but had to give it away as we couldnt cook it. Living in Sydney we have so many nice beaches and north and south of Sydney also.

We flew to Broome hired a car and drove to Derby, from there flying to see the horizontal falls. That was a wonderful trip the vastness and patterns on the earth were mind blowing. We enjoyed Derby and the large wharf and watching the fishermen there.

We drove to Fitzroy Crossing and saw Geikie Gorge and I really loved that. We were sorry we didnt have a 4WD to explore further but really enjoyed the scenery and boab trees as we drove around.

I guess good planning to fit in the things you want to see most will see you really enjoy your 4 weeks. Waynes trip is full of lots of good ideas.

Well Bob 4 weeks away would be better than being at work no matter how far you get. LOL You may miss a few things in that time but you would certainly have a great holiday and you would have an excuse to go back later to see the things you missed !!

G'day Bob we did a 10 day flying trip to the Kimberleys a few years ago and it was a rush in both sences, a lot to see. Between places we were sittin on around 240kms/hr hired a car at each stop and did a couple of tours. You'll have to put the detronic back in to do it. Cheers from Paul, Linda and Girls ps did you see the post about the Lilliput screen yesterday?
