The Graceful Cyclists

Cycle touring and other adventures

The cyclone went south. I have to admit I was curious what a cyclone would be like, but having been 500km from one I can honestly say I don’t need to be any closer. In Broome we’ve had small wind gusts maxing out at about 80km/h and a respectible 20ish millimetres of rain a day. That might not seem like a lot, and I know I have experiences a lot worse around the place, but when it looks like what you can see below you’d probably be happy with what you’d seen too.

The rain wind and swell has been eating away the sand dune. Most of the colour in the water is from run off though.

Okay, it was wet abnd windy, but others have it so much worse.

Wind battered palm trees are pretty common at the moment.
