Whales, wildflowers and a bouncy castle



Fish and chip supper on the beach at Kalbarri with a gorgeous sunset



Walked 16kms return from Eagle Gorge to Natural Arch. Stunning. Walking along the cliffs in the sun. You couls see the curve of the earth over the blue, blue ocean. Limestone on top of red sandstone made the cliffs fantastic.





Out to sea-humpback whales on their way south.











Wildflowers in the dry soil








So many flowers in this harsh landscape



Strolling along Dave almost jumped over the cliff when he almost stood on a bob tailed skink.




When it couldn't get better we saw pods of dolphins.



More cliffs and wild flowers as we walked back. Wonderful













Back at the campground for an ice cream from Mr Whippy and a bounce on the bouncy castle with instruction from a young girl

The bouncy castle at the Caravan Park. The little girl told Dave not to be scared



Ice cream from the musical ice cream van
Another day and another walk on the cliffs watching the whales. This time they were close to the shore







Leaving Kalbarri we drove south. Stopped at Pink Lake which as you can see is very pink. Port Gregory was a small port behind the dunes

Very windy and salty foam blowing on the lovely car
Lynton and the convict hiring station from 1860. Mrs Anna of King and I fame lived here for a year when her husband was manager

Northampton and a John Hawes catholic church
Geraldton cathedral
