Day 35 Middle Lagoon 13/6/14

We packed the tent and headed off to Middle Lagoon to go camping for the weekend. We left early as Mum wanted to get some bread from Lombadina which is an Aboriginal community. We heard that if you get there at 10am the bread will have just come out and will be hot. We got there at 10.30 and got the last two loafs of bread. While we were there we saw a ten year old Aboriginal boy driving a car around! We had a look in the church there, it was very nice.

We when to Ardyaloon which is an Aboriginal community at One Arm Point. There is a Hatchery for trochus snails that produce a beautiful shell. Dad bought on of the shells.There were lot of big tubs with fish in them as we’ll as the shells.
Before Long Arm Point we had a look at a pearl shop, they had a old divers costume there.

We arrived at Middle Lagoon and when we were finding our site we got bogged in some deep red sand, we dug around the wheels to get some sand away then Dad,Tara and I pushed while Mum drove. We got it out with not too much trouble.

  1. Well you’re really seasoned 4WD’ers now, next you’ll be going up the Gibb River Rd! I wonder if Gerard bought any of those beautiful black pearls?
