Shark Bay

We based ourselves in the Francois Peron National Park for four days while we checked out Monkey Mia, the National Park and the rest of Shark Bay. The beaches in the National Park were beautiful and we all loved shark spotting at Skip Jack Point. Shell Beach was just superb and we never get tired of looking at that blue water. We saw dolphins, sharks, rays, turtles and a thorny devil and lots of amazing sunsets.

Storming Australia

We knew we had seen a sand trooper walking along the highway previously and just couldn't place where. We think it must have been Tassie, so you can imaging our surprise to see him again, just south of the Shark Bay turn off. This time curiosity got the better of us so we stopped to say hello. His name is Scotty and he is walking around Australia dressed as a sand trooper for Monash Children's Hospital. It was a hot day, there were heaps of flies and he was fully dressed as a sand trooper! What an amazing thing to do, you can check out his facebook page here.


Kalbarri

Tim finally came back from Alice and we got the hell out of Geraldton! We spent a glorious six days in Kalbarri enjoying the weather, the beautiful Murchison River and its gorges and the wonderful coastline. Tim loved kayaking up the river and caught a few nice bream for dinner.
