Thierings on Tour

This morning started with some much-needed me time with an amazing yoga session overlooking Lake Argyle. Wendy certainly helped reset and start the day on a high note!

Then it was pack up time as we got ready to head to El Questro (the start of the Gibb River Road) that we won’t get to do this year). It meant heading back though Kununurra, which actually wasn’t a bad thing as we needed a top up of supplies anyway. 

There were some local markets that we perused and the girls remembered seeing an amazing splash park at the leisure centre when we had walked past a few days ago. My rubber arm got twisted to let them go and play while Chris pumped up the tyres and got fuel. The park was awesome and the girls absolutely loved it!

We quickly grabbed some lunch before hitting the road as everyone was hungry after splashing around. The girls loved the novelty of trying their first ever Subway… it’s the simple things!

Then it was back on the road and we just had to get a tourist photo with the Gibb River Road sign. Such a shame we can’t drive the full road this trip, but it just means we will have to come back soon.

The road into El Questro involved a couple of river crossings, which did make Chris nervous with all the car bits that are currently under question, but the car seemed to do well, fingers crossed. 

It was another relaxed afternoon of snacking, swimming at the waterhole and enjoying a drink at the bar while the kids made friends and played games on the lawn. What a lovely way to wind down for the night!
