Broome



The Variety Bash is in Town.   The cars ended their epic journey from NSW here in Broome on Wednesday.  They all parked up at a local primary school and we went out for a look.  Rick shed tears when he saw some of the cars that were being used.  The car above is a genuine GT falcon.       The little turtle we spotted at the wharf, swimming against the tide, for every stroke he got pushed backward.  The view is from the jetty at the wharf.   Everywhere, the color of the water against either the rocks or sand is beautiful.   Yesterday we went out to Quandong Point in our 4WD - all dirt road for a swim.  It is about 45kms out of Broome.  The water was magic, Rick went in for a body surf and ended up being hit by a wave and damaging his knee.  Snapped the medial ligament on the side of the knee.  A trip to Hospital, followed.  He is OK.  Needs to keep it bandaged, elevated and rested.  Doesnt need medication or physio.  He feels pretty good this morning but he is banned from all activity for the day.   He is half way thru an oil change on the bus and is busting to get on with it, but he will have to wait.   Shouldnt affect his ability to drive, but it will be a good excuse for him now whenever I mention the word "shops"   he will reply "I cant walk that far".

  1. You just need to come home and start work on your own Falcon. With a bad paint job and a heap of dodgy stickers, yours could look just like that one! JM
