Gibb River Road Preparations


Gibb River Rd - first stop Windjana Gorge NP
I am supermarketed out after shopping nearly every day for the last week in preparation for our few months in the bush whilst doing the Gibb River Rd. Daniel has also finally fixed the power issues we were having so fingers crossed everything works ok once we are in the bush. 
The Gibb River Road is a 600km adventure through some of the most rugged country (and roads) in Australia. The area is full of gorges, waterfalls and swimming holes and is meant to be spectacular. In preparation for possibly weeks in the same spot I have filled the cupboards with tinned food and the freezer with meat. A lovely guy in Coles ordered a huge supply of Almond milk for Jackson as I'm not sure if the almond milk craze has hit the small Aboriginal communities & roadhouses on the Gibb. 
There is not meant to be any phone reception so don't expect to hear from us for awhile. We will be sunning ourselves along a river, eating fish that Daniels caught, baking our own bread on the campfire and swimming in every swimming hole we can. Hopefully Emilia will regard this as 'Real Australia!

Some of the huge amount of supplies
Jacksons Almond Milk - 40 litres of it but I could only fit in 6 bottles of wine!!
