To Purnululu National Park

Of course another early morning at Lake Argyle.  Visited the Durack Homestead near the camping grounds.  This homestead was build by the first Durack in the late 1800s and when the Ord River system was built in the early 1970s, the homestead was demolished brick by brick and rebuilt above the water line and is now a museum.  The house is a typical thick walled residence with wide verandahs, several graves were exhumed and relocated to the homestead site.  Watched the finches and the bower bird in the grounds, wandered through the house and tasted some boab tree fruit.
Nice relaxing morning.
Drove back in to Kunnunurra to buy some supplies, including some lunch (at own expense!!)
Then a longer drive to the Purnululu National Park where the Bungle Bungle Ranges are located.  Almost all these roads are now sealed and relatively smooth.  Luke warned us about the 50 kilometres....we took no notice.  The best I could describe them would be as - a roller coaster with rocks.  There were so many turns, so many river crossings and washouts. Twenty years ago this 50 kms took 6 hours - we zoom across it in just under two hours - fun times!!  I'm sure a back massage would have been welcomed at dusk.
No such luck!!
Got into the camp site at about 5pm, just in time to select out tents, set up our sleeping quarters and help prepare tea.
Beautiful site as the sun went down and shone on the ranges.  Very relaxing having a beer around the fire and watching the glow against the Bungle Bungles.

Last look at Lake Argyle.
