• Day 72 - Side of Road to Kalbarri

    July 11, 2024 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    Surprisingly quiet night, thought we might of heard trucks but all good. We couldn't check into Anchorage Park until midday so went into the National Park to check out the Skywalk and Natures Window. Unfortunately we were not allowed to take the Van in so had to head out again.

    Into town, checked out the IGA, much better prices than at Jurien Bay, did some emails in a carpark, Wayne's Spotify account got hacked so trying to sort that out. We have a River frontage spot, very full park, hopefully they will head home tomorrow as its the end of school holidays.

    Back to National Park, both Skywalk and Natures Window were amazing, such rugged country side through the gorge with the Murchison River running through, apparently it doesn't always run but judging by the amount of water still laying around they have had a fair amount of rain.

    Wayne decided to surf this spot as we didn't get to Wave Rock.....

    Went to Jacques Point - good surfing beach, had a great right hand wave with heaps of surfers enjoying the ride. Went to Blue Holes, Red Bluff and couple of other small beaches along the coast. Beautiful area I know why Alex and Sandy both loved Kalbarri.

    Were on our way back from Red Bluff and spotted 3 big whales in close, not sure about the photo's but there was a boat out Whale watching with heaps of ppl on board and had a jet ski hassling the whales to go closer to the boat.

    Was a good finish to the day, love watching the whales, there was also a pod of dolphin's playing in the waves.
