| Leaving Litchfield for Pine Creek |
gotta love the Stuart Hwy.....
......the Jeep loved it
Driving down the Avenue leading to the war Cemetary,
at Adelaide River
feeling emotional
such a beautiful place
words can't describe the feeling
and just around the corner, we found.....
......Charlie the water buffalo at the Adelaide River Inn
A few sights around Pine Creek
not much happens here now except for us tourists visiting
the open cut gold mine. when it ceased operation in 1995 the Pine Creek was diverted to fill it. It took 14 months and 6800 megalitres to fill it.
us having a drink at the Lazy Lizard Tavern, where we were camped for the night

| Nitmiluk National park, going to Edith Falls for the night |
KIosk at Edith Falls
Leliyn is Edith falls
Fantastic place to ......
......Spend The day
Sharon having a swim
I wasn't game
I went in anyway, but not as far out as Sharon, but could have stayed there all day, it was bl..dy hot out, had to be out of the water before the freshies (crocs) came to feed at dusk.
relaxing back at camp
stayed here for the night
on our way out of Edith Falls in the morning....
heading West towards Broome and the Kimberley region
some fantastic scenery on the Victoria highway as we get closer to the WA border
note the last one on the list
will be in WA tomorrow
crossing the Victoria River
going to Timber Creek for the night at the caravan park behind the Timber Creek Hotel
the resident "Freshie"
there he is behind us, just sunbaking
the walkway over the creek where the croc lives
a big boab tree in our park
he is not caged or fenced in, our van is about 50 metres away, no one seemed to worry
The Timber Creek Hotel Caravan Park, lots of shade here. this is our last stop before entering WA
filling up the Timber Creek Hotel, but it wasn't beer in the tanks of this road train.
