Willie Creek Pearl Farm











Day 60. On Thursday we went to Willie Creek Pearl Farm which is 38 km from Broome. On the tour we saw some oysters which are what they use to make pearls. We played on the boat they had in the playground and then we had a picnic lunch. Then we had some lemonade cordial. Then we went on a boat cruise to see where they farm the oysters which grow pearls and to see if the oysters are sick or not. Then we went into a tributory of the river looking for the crocodile. After the boat tour we went to the showroom and learnt how to value and care for real pearls. The quality of a valuable pearl are: color, shape, size, lustre (shine) and complexion (smoothness).
Day 61. On Friday we hanged around the camp for the whole day. Then we baked a cake for Brocks birthday. We went grocery shopping in the morning.
