Tourist girl returns

Suzanne arrived back from Broome at 6am on Virgin Blue this morning. It was raining, windy and cool in Adelaide ----a huge contrast to the t shirt and shorts weather in Broome.

We had a chat about her adventures over a cup of coffee, looked at the presents and purchases and history tours Was she relaxed? Well she felt disorientated, fell into bed and went straight to sleep.

She mentioned the Dinosaur prints at Gantheaume Point; the graveyard for Japanese pearlers; (which I'd remembered visiting); checked out the pearl luggers and the Staircase to the Moon; missed the Bird Observatory but learned about this and Japanese Internment

Since her sister is a jeweller Suzanne spent lots of time looking at the latest designs in pearls and diamonds at Linneys and bought back their 2002 catalogue (a slow load even for high speed broadband); hung out at pearlers row Gallery and mentioned that it was a photographer's delight

Lots of ideas to explore the Kimberlys.
