magic cArpet ride

i am glad i didn't settle but followed me instincts & kept driving north. when i drove into Kununurra, i knew it was what i had been waiting for - the Real Australia. the town is situated on a river which they dammed in the 60's for what became a very successful water irrigation & wild life rehabilitation program. the camp site is overlooking a lagoon with fresh water crocs, frilly necked lizards, frogs, pythons, bats, strange birds & wallabies. favorite pastime of the locals: fishing, 4wd-ing, boating & discovering a fishing hole that no one else can get to.

last night's boat ride:

Yes, this does look like the rainbow at the end of the road. It is good to hear you being so positive about where you are. I hope that your head is in the same place as your heart. Love John III
