Monday, 18 August 2014 – Silent Grove and Bell Gorge

Due to the early sunrise in the east of WA we once again rose early at 6am. When you're in a tent it's hard to sleep in with sun rising about 5:30am.   After a short drive we arrived at Galvins Gorge where one of us had a morning swim in the very picturesque setting.

Later we stopped off at the Imintji Store for a late morning tea/early lunch. The delicious pies are about $8 each but twice the size of the average pie so we guess they worth the money. 

A few more Ks down the Gibb River Road we turned off towards the Silent Grove campground, a setting off point for Bell Gorge. We quickly set up camp and drove on to the Gorge where we completed another challenging walk to have a swim in another wonderful setting.
