Pearl Luggers Broome


Day 64. Today (Monday) we went into town and did the Pearl Luggers tour. We got to see the history of pearl shell harvesting. They harvest the shells by using a huge and heavy diving suit. In the olden days one out of three divers died on their first ever dive. I got to try on a pearl that was worth $50000!Then we went window shopping and headed back to camp. In the evening we went to the beach and played soccer before dinner. The temperature is 31 degrees in the day and around 20 degrees in the evening.
