We began our last full day at Kununurra with a canoe at Lake Argyle. On our 70km trip to the lake, we saw these two most amazing birds.

Due to the previous day’s bad weather, there was some reluctance from a couple of our tour members to partake in this activity. As it turns out, their concerns were unwarranted. The water was a little choppy but nothing these adventurers couldn’t handle. Wayne and I were even asked to retrieve an esky lid by an occupant of one of the house boats.







We stopped in at the caravan park with one of the world’s best infinity pools. We tried to get morning tea and buy some merch. but a tour group arrived and the staff was slammed. We did get photos of the pool and view.



We detoured via Hoochery Distillery on the way home and had lunch – fish tacos and pulled pork sliders. Donna and I got the cocktail paddle.





We came home and yes….had a kip. It was then a slow afternoon. Donna and I did some washing and boy was that a saga. Fighting for the three operational washing machines and one dryer in a community of over a hundred caravaners and campers was not easy. Thank goodness for Donna’s determination and beautiful manner with everyone. She bewitched everyone with her aura and our washing was done and dried with only four trips back and forth to the laundry.
Meanwhile, Mark and Wayne went hunting and gathering…via the pub. They watched some footy, objectively observed some attractive girls working the pool table, and probably had a glass of sparkling water. They then went to Coles, the shelves even more depleted than the day before, and found something for dinner.
We all went down to the lake to watch the sunset. Unfortunately, there was still some cloud cover so it wasn’t as beautiful as the first night where I was the only witness. On the first evening, I was out getting mine (and Donna’s) steps up and for the first time on this trip, I didn’t have my phone on me. It was the most magnificent sunset and I thought we could see it the next night …and that’s when the poor weather set in. Note to self: seize the day! I should have ran back, grabbed my phone and tour group, and taken a photo.



Mark did a great job with dinner – steak, bacon, lettuce, cheese, tomato and beetroot burgers. A fitting dinner for our last night in Kununurra – place where two waters meet.
