We have just left Fitzroy Crossing.....next stop Broome! Whoopee!!!!!!
Yesterday we took a boat ride through Geike Gorge on the Fitzroy River. (The reason we stopped in Fitzroy Crossing) The cliffs along the riverside were spectacular limestone creations that have been carved into amazing formations by the ‘mighty Fitzroy’ when she roars through the gorge at high tide during the summer months. Once again the colours of these rock walls are just spectacular. From the pure white limestone, through to a fabulous rich burnt sienna colour. Oh, to be able to sit for a few hours and just paint!!!!!
I have been doing a little bit of painting, but it’s difficult when someone else has to wait around while you are doing it!! I’d like to say, “You go ahead and I’ll catch up later!” I have done a few little watercolour sketches in my sketchbook in the car as we’ve been travelling along , just to stave off the withdrawals I get when I don’t paint!!!
