We had bit of a sleepin this morning and used up the last Bacon we brought from Wodonga for our cooked breakfast. As soon as brekki was finished I zipped into town to get some morning tea and Ilse did a few loads of washing. The kids settled down for some school work and we had visitors, Jenny and Alan from Melbourne, who we first met at Monkey Mia. Of course once we got talking time just flew and after another late lunch the kids went swimming to the pool and I went out for some more shopping. Amongst other things I bought a jerry can holder, so on my return to the caravan park I got busy and worked up a sweat fitting the jerry can holder to the roof rack.
Ilse had a dentist appointment at 4pm to fix up a filling and I used the time to get the car ready for tomorrow's trip. On the way home we called in to say goodbye to Louise and Bill and their 3 kids. They gave us some tuna steaks from yesterday's catch. Our kids and their 3 kids got on very well over this stay in Broome and we are looking forward to catching up with them when they move back to Baranduda next year.
Ever since we've been on our fishing charter all our dinners have been fish and we've still got some more in the freezer. Tonight's fresh Tuna was certainly a highlight in our fish eating experience. Tuna steak is absolutely superb and would have to be one of our all time favorites.
Unfortunately today was our last day in Broome and we are a bit sad that our 10 day stay is coming to an end. I could easily stay here for the rest of our holiday but there are places to see and people to meet so we must move on. Broome has certainly grown on me and I can already see myself joining all the other retired Victorians for their annual pilgrimage to this wonderful part of the country.
