So we’re sitting by the pool at Kimberlyland caravan park and we’re getting a little bit worked up. Almost stressed, which doesn’t seem quite right under the circumstances. You see we can’t decide what to do. On the menu of options is a tour of the Bungle Bungle at $1,100 for all of us and or, in a week or so time, a flight and boat ride through the Horizontal Falls in the Kimberley Buchaneer Archipeligo at $2,400. Neither are in the budget as such, but both are highly tempting. The Horizontal Falls is on my equivalent of a bucket list. We are $1,500 ahead of budget overall for the trip at this point and do have a contingency fund in case of emergencies.
Should we:
A) do nothing, not in the budget so just move on and enjoy the rest of this magnificent land
B) just do the Bungle Bungle, it is within our budget given the current underspend
C) just do the horizontal falls, which would put us a bit behind budget but we could make it back up by eating straight rice for the rest of the trip
D) be a little mean spirited and just adults go one at a time to go on the horizontal falls and halve the cost, after all the kids are happiest in the nearest pool. We are also willing to take offers of babysitters flying over to relieve us for the day
E) do the Bungle Bungle and just adults do the horizontal
F) to hell with it, and do the lot, work out how to pay later
Oh yes and we need input quickly in order to make bookings!

Looks like you guys are having a stack of fun – watch out for that car though – they tell me it can be a long walk to the next servo out that way!
Cheers Paul
Give my love to Amy and Oliver and tell them I have a few stories to share with them about a certain black and tan dog called Tully.
I’m supposed to be writing a Uni assignment at the mo so you are a good distraction.
Then we looked further into the Bungle Bungles trip… A 12 hour day, starting ar 530am… With about 5 hours 4WD on rough roads (it’s only 50kms each way) So we decided to give that a miss this time. It’ll be there when we’re back with our own four wheels.
PS Gill- Amy and Oliver were both very pleased to hear you had stories to tell them about Tully!
