Today we went for a drive to a beach called Coconut Well. There are a heap of jagged rocks on the beach at low tide which create rock pools and at one stage have had loads of oysters on them. The colour of the water contrasting against the red rock and white sand was pretty special. We collected a bag of sea shells and Trent found a bit of washed up fishing gear.

On the way back to Broome we went to 'The Mango Place' where they use the Mangos grown at their farm to produce a variety of Mango infused goodies. We tasted their four varieties of Port and lots of different jams and chutneys, had a Chicken and Mango Pizza for lunch and ended up purchasing some Wattleseed Port. While we were their we were entertained by a frilled neck lizard and pied butcher birds.

Back to camp after lunch for a swim in the pool and a bit of shopping as we prepare to head up to Cape Leveque in the morning. Not sure what sort of reception we will get up at Middle Lagoon so I don't know when the next update will be. 

We have decided to stay up this way a bit longer and use all our spare days before heading back to the unpredictable weather down south. The stairway to the moon is on the 10th of September up in Broome so we probably won't be leaving until the 11th before heading across to the Bungle Bungles and then scooting home via Wolfe Creek Crater and the Tanami.
