Bungle Bungles

Unbelievably we get a text meassage from our good firends Darryl and Julie who happen to be just 4 hours ahead of us.  This is amazing as they live in Victoria, but have a charmed life travelling all over Australia when they can get away from the Motel they have in Daylesford. We meet them in Kununnarra and they have booked us a fabulous cabin looking  directly over the river.  It's great to catch up and share our stories and we all agree that the Kimberleys are awesome! But I really wanted to see the Bungle Bungles and as we couldn't risk driving over any rough terrain we decided a flight would be the best way to see it.
Steve calls this his "View and Spew" experience.  The plane was tiny, a six seater, and the 2 hour flight was too much for him.  On the other hand I am blown away by the mighty Ord River Dam...the size of about 30 Sydney harbours, the mountain ranges, Argyle Diamond mine and of course the famous Bungle Bungle mountains.
