HEADING NORTH AGAIN

UNIVERSITY OF WA
Those who know me well, especially my friend Sandra who is a champion list maker and inveterate pre-planner, who despairs of my in-my-head planning, as I am about to go out the door to somewhere ordinary like Siberia! would be amazed to see that I had actually got round to mapping out a schedule for the next stage of my songlines road trip( after I have returned from Melbourne on 21 April)up the WA Coral Coast to Broome.But don't get too carried away, it is only tentative and may vary considerably when I get going.

BAR AND CAFE-CABLE BEACH RESORT BROOME
The reason for floating this in advance is that, whilst I had taken some local advice on places I must go and things I must see and do, I would appreciate any additional suggestions from my readers.There is a facility for commenting on the blog or if you are shy send a direct email.Thanks.
