Will there be crocs?

14:00 - General Disembarkation for Swimming at Crocodile Creek

Join us for a swim in the cool freshwater of Crocodile Creek. 

We will run a zodiac shuttle from shore to ship every 

15 minutes. Please bring zodiac life jacket, sunscreen, 

hats and cameras. It will be a dry landing at the swimming 

hole today.

Heavenly, a swim to beat the heat, with a promise (had to 

get the promise) there would be no crocodiles! This was 

the reason Paula and I packed our swimsuits.........

......to climb up and over and into a little slice of 
heaven in Australia's Kimberley Region.

When the dry season's tides are low like this 

there's apparently no chance of crocs 

being able to access the water above.........there 

were harmless jellyfish, fish, and other creatures 

at the bottom.......but we didn't learn about them 

until the evening recap. Nobody was 

bitten or stung.....

This beautiful place awaited, the colors of the water 

were breathtaking, and that lovely sound.......

the saxophone played by none other than Gus 

from the ship already ensconced on the rocks 

when we arrived.

Gus and Fran were the great musical duo who entertained 

us daily - they were amazing.

This really was a magical place.................

.......a special day and memories to treasure for ever.

Back to Orion waiting for us on the deep blue sea.
