Month completed: March 2008

No posts for a while, as I have been off in Broome achieving goal 47.

Having now been, I can summarise Broome in four words:

- Red

- Humid

- Beautiful

- Relaxing

When I say red, I mean that red dirt and rock is everywhere. Wherever you look, there is red. It’s very distinctive.

When I say humid, I mean that it is so humid that your sunglasses fog up within seconds of stepping outside. It is swelteringly humid.

When I say beautiful, I am referring to the beaches, in particular Cable Beach, which is nothing more than kilometres of white sand and clear waters. And great waves. The picture above is of a sunset at Cable Beach. If you look closely, you will see me amongst the waves.

When I say relaxing, I mean that everyone there is on Broome Time. Broome Time is a slow pace that involves no rushing, and when everyone around you is running on Broome time, it is easy to follow suit. Relaxation follows (a 90 minute massage also helps when it comes to relaxation, which Nat and I also partook in).

One of the things you can do here is a sunset camel ride along Cable Beach. Here is me with the camel I rode on during the ride we went on. His name is Mustaf.

I would definitely recommend adding Broome to your list of potential holiday spots. If you can stand the heat, you will love it.
