Yellow Water Billabong Sunrise Cruise

Another highlight out of Cooinda was the Yellow Water cruise, especially for the birdlife which the boys loved. Every 5 minutes they'd jump up and call out the name of another bird they'd see! We were  up at 6 in the morning and on the river by 645 in time to watch the sun come up, it was so beautiful, the water was like glass..
