4/8/21 Emu Creek to Exmouth
We spent a lazy morning by the river, enjoying our peaceful spot and knowing that we would not be able to check in to the caravan park in Exmouth until after 2 pm. We headed out of the station by a different way, but soon joined up with the main highway, following along towards Exmouth.Continue reading “4/8/21 Emu Creek to Exmouth”
3/8/21 40 Mile to Emu Creek
It was pretty much 10 am before we moved on out of camp. The tide hadn’t moved much in the whole time we were here, and we enjoyed a fairly windy night with the sounds of the waves. After a luxurious lie in and egg and bacon breakfast we dropped off our recycling (for theContinue reading “3/8/21 40 Mile to Emu Creek”

31/7 Kalamina gorge
We had a much quieter and lazier day today. We once more drove the corrugated dirt road to the west, but not for so long. We stopped at Kalamina Gorge, where we spent a relaxed and enjoyable time. After the rocky climb down into the gorge we first turned to the right and, after aContinue reading “31/7 Kalamina gorge”
30/7/21-Weano Gorge and Hancock Gorge
As we drove the very corrugated road across to our next day of Karijini adventure we admired the beautiful purple Mulla Mullas so beautifully arranged on the road verges and the striking white trunks of snappy gums against the red of the rock and pale green of the spinifex. Hancock gorge was our first targetContinue reading “30/7/21-Weano Gorge and Hancock Gorge”

We decided to se the closer areas to our campsite and walked down from our campsite to the Dales Gorge area. Our first stop was at Circular pool lookout.

This lovelyContinue reading “29/7/21 Dales Gorge Karinjini”
28/7/21 Cape Keraudren to Karijini
We woke to another pea souper. So happy that didn’t happen earlier. We could see Craig and Ev beside us, but no further. It slowly lifted as we ate our breakfast and packed up. We headed out towards Port Hedland, leaving our rubbish and recycling and using the other handy nearby facilities. We had timeContinue reading “28/7/21 Cape Keraudren to Karijini”
