WW II Catalina Flying Boats


We got up at 5:00am to take advantage of the very low tide to walk out to see the Catalina flying boat wrecks that are normally in 30 feet of water.  They had been bombed by the Japs just after landing.   It's an hour's walk each way.  We only had about 30 minutes there and had to treck back again as the tide would beat us!


Matilda & Clancy with a big star fish we found on the way

On the way back again... had to move fast to beat the 30 foot tide


Robyn and Dr Wendy Cavilla


That's about the closest I've got to flying since being here in Broome - but that will change
