Ive made it to Broome!

After setting out last Monday, I have covered 5,200 km covering the furthest reaches of Australia. From the freeways through Melbourne to the pouring rain of the Wimmera, to fierce storms in Adelaide to the long, dry stretches of the South Australian Outback, to Alice Springs, Mataranka and Katherine, to Halls Creek and finally Broome, where Cable Beach is a welcome sight at the end of a long, dry, dusty and hot highway.

I have arrived at the company offices, spent one night on the couch here (and another soon to come) while I look for a place to stay in Broome for the next couple of weeks, and it looks like I will be flying tomorrow after all! Halls Creek won't be too much futher away, but I will certainly be making the most of the oasis in the desert that is Broome before I move 700km back inland!
