Colourful Kalbarri

The trip from Denham to Kalbarri was an easy run with many beautiful wildflowers along the way.

Just before turning off the highway we encountered some fields of wheat - our first in almost 4 months. Farms instead of Stations, ordered fenced paddocks, tree lined drives which led to houses you could actually see - we had reached the settled lands and already were missing the wilderness and wide open spaces - perhaps not so much the dust and corrugations.

 We have been to Kalbarri before, when the kids were very little and we were tenting, and in some ways it feels as if we have completed our journey and it is time to head for home - if only we had a home. At least the house is up to floor level - the poor weather has caused many delays.

Kalbarri - beautiful expansive gorges, wonderful wildflowers, a wild coast with massive waves crashing on the reefs, sculptured cliffs, pelicans gliding on the estuary - quite a magic place. We walked, rode, explored, and relaxed.
