Melmoth BIG RIDE day 0

Day 0      29th June 2013

Last day before the BIG RIDE begins.  Arrived here in Broome 9pm last night.   Staying these last two nights at the Notre Dame University in student accommodation.  All very comfortable and clean.  We have real beds - pure luxury - something that we will not see for some time.

Broome is a busy town and in the height of tourist season at the moment.  Weather fine, warm and humid though they have had heaps of rain in the last couple of weeks.   So much in fact that much of the luggage in the trailers driving up from Perth got wet crossing the flooded creeks.  My gear in the Navara was fine.

Busy time catching up with old friends and trying to remember names of new ones.  Maybe by the time we get to Sydney I will have them all worked out.
  Short ride this afternoon to see and stand in the Indian Ocean at Cable Beach.

 
Most of the group of riders on Cable Beach Broome WA .
 
Not expecting there to be any internet coverage for the next 3 days so this we probably be the only post till about day 4.  Tomorrow we head off into the wilds of WA.  Camping for the next three nights.    Thanks for your prayers and kind donations to Bible Society.
