Derby

From Broome we drove to Derby, a small town not so far from Broome. Many people tend to skip it and brochures only mentioned the Prison Tree, but we decided to stop there anyway. Which turned out to be a good choice. We, of course, did see the prison tree, but we also drove up the first sealed part of the Gibb River Road (a former cattle route that stretches 700km through the Kimberleys; most of it unsealed) and we went to have a look at the harbour.

Both of which were great. The harbour was a terrific view, of muddy crocodile waters and old machinery. While we spotted a huge lizard on the Gibb River Road :)
