Pete may be on a 'Boab' hunt... theres a so-called 'Prison tree' near Wyndham, and another near Derby.

Probably gone to the Five Ruvers Lookout.

Heading back towards Kununurra.

Wendy and I spent the day doing some local exploring,  with a ride to Wyndham where we visited the port,  the spectacular Five Rivers Lookout, and the Big Croc.  No much was open,  being Easter Sunday.   It was a pretty hot and uncomfortable day for riding,  and a slack afternoon back at camp.    I have really enjoyed Wendy's company over these lastly couple of days,  and tomorrow she heads home to Darwin and I head for Fitzroy Crossing.   We are both leaving early due to the heat.   Johnny has left on his adventure and there is a chance our paths might cross.

Day 40, and back on schedule.
Around 650km run to Fitzroy crossing for Pete, and 930km for Wendy to return home.
Travel safe my friends.

Fitzroy Crossing temp is expected to reach 40 today. Not the greatest weather for travel comfort.

At a guess, Wendy should be more than halfway to Katherine at this point in time, plus time out for refreshments.
