On the way to Geraldton towards Perth

We left Shark Bay and headed to Geraldton with some adventures along the way.

this is the view from Eagle Bluff














and then we went to Hamelin Pool, where we learned all about stromatolites - for those interested you can read more here .... http://www.sharkbay.org/Stromatolitesfactsheet.aspx




We ended up staying the night at a 'by the side of the road' rest stop called Murchison River, where the locals were very friendly.














this was the sunset.


Up early the next day to see Kalbari National Park which offered some beautiful flora to view on the way in, then amazing cliff top ocean views on the drive out.











We arrived in Geraldton (Gerro for the locals) on Sunday 16th September 2012, and stayed for 2 nights.
We really got a feel for Geraldton, no windsurfing but we got to know the way around town.













 Tonight we are camped here



with a view of this
We are not far from Perth now and then it will be the long drive eastward. 
We are missing all of our family and friends and are looking forward to catching up with you all when we return in early October.
