30 July 2013
Our Kununurra adventure continued today as we decided to undertake a cruise on the Ord River as opposed to yesterday's cruise on Lake Argyle. That was nothing short of spectacular so we are interested to see how a cruise on the Ord will compare. We drove to Lake Argyle after booking our tour with Triple J Tours for a 10am pickup. We elected to undertake a three hour tour commencing from the dam wall and heading down the Ord for some 23km before turning around. The scenery was spectacular and simply stunning.

The cruise down the Ord exceeded our expectations - we have found all the tour groups up here to be very professional in their approach. All have the typical Aussie humour that we take for granted and what appears to have disappeared within our city confines. They are a great bunch and are truly representative of what it means to be an aussie. Our overseas visitors truly experience what it means to be an Australian when they come up here. We are a little sad today as it is Rob's last day with us. He heads back to Perth tonight so we will need to give him an unforgettable farewell tonight.
