Broome - Day 1

Stepping onto the tarmac, the bright Broome sun shone down & a strong breeze wound around us, tossing our light clothing into swirls of mayhem!

Welcome to Broome!!

Immediately we slathered ourselves in layers of 30+ sunscreen.
Surprised at the lack of sniffer dogs & surly customs officers, we made our way to Cable Beach, and went for a long stroll

Then who do we see, but Caroline Taylor (from Taylor's Art Cafe in the Swan Valley!!), looking tanned & very nautical in her stripes & fedora hat. She had been away for 6 weeks, working on a "Motor Vessel" (I think that's a type of boat?) & was stoppiong in Broome on her way back to Perth the next day. Unbelievable timing!! We all went for a late lunch at Matso's (a local pub restaurant). It was fantastic catching up with the gorgeous Caroline.

Starting to remember what relaxing is all about!!
...well that didn't last long...

A last minute change in accommodation for one of the Verge Girls, and we ended up visiting an actual house of horrors!! Unfortunately, due to censorship issues, we aren't able to retell the tale online, but it's okay... We are all safe, but can't speak for the last visitor there; we thankfully were saved by the beautiful Honey!

I wonder if Day 2 will be as exciting!!
