Day 120 Cockburn Rest Area – Wyndam – Kununurra West Rest Area 29th - 30th July

Wyndam was our next stop for cheap diesel and a look at the five-rivers lookout. The town wasn't much to write home about, appearing the worse for wear but the lookout provided spectacular views of the massive rivers in the area. Down below you could see the operation to take iron-ore onto ships via conveyor belts and barges. Jordan led us in search of a geo-cache which we successfully found and wrote our names in.

We bumped into Nick & Brigid in Kununurra during our ridiculously expensive grocery shop at Coles to replace our severely depleted provisions. We ended up camping at Kununurra West Rest Area, making our way down a rough track to some secluded, rocky spots away from the main roads. We lit a fire and ended up having a nice evening, with some spectacular rock formations for our view.
