 This morning Clare, Trent and I made the short walk over to Cable Beach to have a swim, while Alyssa stayed behind to do some homework. When we got there we noted on the Surf Life Saving Club sign it said there were Jellies in the water that produce a mild sting. We thought we would risk it anyway and went for a swim.  It was high tide and the water was pretty rough by Cable Beach standards. Trent and I both got stung, it was a bit like being stung by a March Fly, only the sting continues a bit longer. The jellyfish were Tomatoe Jellies. 

We didn't stay too long and headed back to the van park for a swim in the pool - hard to take, I know. 

After our swim we went and stocked up in groceries for the next 10 days or so.

Then we headed off to Town Beach where they had markets on before the Stairway to the Moon.

It was amazing to see how many people turned up to watch the moon rise and shine it's light over the sand flats, producing the stairway. It was as if half of Broome was there, they really make something big of it. No photos sorry, the iPhone wasn't up to it. You will just have to take my word for it that it was worth staying the extra nights in Broome to see it.
