  • Kimberley Crusaders – Part 1 June 7/2018 – 2,119Km (1,324Miles) from Home
    Kimberley Crusaders – Part 1 June 7/2018 – 2,119km (1,324miles) from home Hi welcome back everyone… Many of you have confirmed your anticipation in our travel tales ahead. Should there be anyone NOT wishing to receive these, please let us know; we will amend our mailing list, no questions asked! Figuring, we passed our six-month ‘Cape Crusader test run’ run last year, we decided to embark on a twelve-month stint this year. Maybe longer – depends on how we’ll adjust to the nomadic ways of gypsies in the longer term; look/see what life on the road will throw at us So… all a bit open-ended but we’ve done it: Our home is stripped bare and rented. Anyone toying with similar thoughts - One must not underestimate the monumental effort it takes of breaking free from societal life’s seemingly countless entrapments! Whose crazy idea exactly was this in the first place?! Hello golfers, proudly managed a “(w)hole in one”: Squeezing our entire possessions into one room. Credit to Katherine’s most skilful planning and removalists’ even more astonishing stacking skills. This is our vision Empty lounge room camping: Family farewell with sisters Jennifer, Charmaine and Brian FLASHBACK to April 3: In the meantime up north, the wet season has ended, the oppressive humidity disappeared and the welcome heat of the ‘dry’ has arrived beyond the Tropic Of Capricorn: The siren call of tropical Northern Australia beckons yet again. The dry season normally lasts for eight months: No rain, the bluest of blue skies and balmy nights.

  • St Michael Goes South
    Friday A fine morning, wind light from the SSW, scattered cumulus cloud 5 January over the hills, barometer 30.95 in. The first job was to settle John and Mike back in the Deas Head area and we were off at 0815 with them on board, anchoring in Erebus Cove at 0855 so that they could sort out gear. John and Sam had been waiting for an opportunity to go up a hill and here it was: promising weather, local running only for ‘St Michael’, and they went off up into the Hooker Hills accordingly at 0955. We brought Mike and John off and moved round to Deas Cove, where they went ashore at 1015 while we left a few minutes later for Enderby. There we picked up Milton at 1050 and headed for Ranui Cove, the weather fair, still light but now WSW, and a shower over the hills which made us wonder if Sam and John were going to be disappointed; it soon cleared off again. 1130 at Ranui, where we picked up Brian and left at 1150, anchoring off French’s I. at 1155 for half an hour while we all went ashore and looked it over. Under way again at 1225 and put Milton ashore in his Camp Bay then left again at 1250 heading round to the north of Ewing I. and anchoring at 1305 off its eastern side, in the inlet between the long rock shelves there. After lunch (eaten quickly as there was quite a roll coming in and we did not feel, somehow, like sitting round down below) we all three went ashore, and Nicholas and I looked over some of the places which I had seen on 30 December.
