I bullied Wendy into leaving really early but that was a good thing because we made seven stops on the way to Shark Bay and didn't arrive until after five. We stopped in Carnarvon for fuel and groceries. Then we stopped in two places for wildflower pictures. Then at the Overlander Roadhouse to pee. Then we stopped at Hamlin Pool to see the Stromatolites (spelling). This was pretty over rated. We tried to help a guy push start his BMW motorcycle there. Unfortunately, we weren't much help. I think he was a bit crazy driving down the isolated WA coast on a dead battery. We checked out the quarry used to create bricks out of cockle shells cemented together over time by rainwater. That was kind of cool. The next stop was Shell Beach. As it sounds like it is a beach made up of shells.
Today we are going on a cruise in search of marine life. Tomorrow we are going to the dolphin feeding and then on to the Francis Peron National Park. We are extending our "tour" one day and heading back to Geraldton on Sunday.
I have added several new photos to the web album.
Hopefully we will have some great ones to post in a few days.
