The Richardson's Adventures

Our holiday to Western Australia was initiated from the idea of taking our boys on a extended holiday prior to starting school. We have been camping in tent's, and more recently we had a camper trailer for 3 years. While the camper trailer served us well ( over 30 camping trips ), we have upgraded to our off road caravan. The caravan makes life easier for the overnight stay, quick pack up, and it also has air conditioning. Our holidays have been booked for 2 1/2 years and we have been planning in some sort of fashion since. We have upgraded the car to give hassle free motoring, not to mention the great V8 rumble.

Broome to Cape Leveque

Entrance into Cape Leveque
We drove from Broome to Cape Leveque, approximately 210 kms, one way.  The first 100 kms is corrugated dirt road.  The Beagle Bay Aboriginal Reserve's next 100 kms is bitumen,  phone and internet service.  Then the last 10 kms into Cape Leveque is corrugated, dirt road.  Worth the drive!!!
