With the insurance worries behind us we booked the into the campsite for a third night and set off to yesterday’s destination.
Monkey Mia. It’s a National Park with a resort type place in it where they feed the dolphins a few times a day.
We weren’t sure about it and after paying the $15 per person entry fee to the National Park, we quickly made our judgment on the place.
Wonderful beach, beautiful sea, lovely dunes.....all spoilt by a flat out tourist trap.
Yep, we’d done it to ourselves again!
Never mind, a couple of hours people watching and a light lunch kept us entertained. We were to late to see the Dolphins, I’m glad really. It must nicer to see stuff naturally, even if they are further away and you just get a glimpse.
There were wows today though, mummy Emu and six babies wandering about in the road. Extreme caution is called for, they can just head off in random directions by all accounts, and young following a parent....we’ve all seen the chaos in Tescos.
In the way back to Denham we stopped off at a wow. Little Lagoon. Shallow turquoise waters with soft sandy beach and virtually no one there. The water is extra salty as it evaporates so quickly and there is very little fresh water as it hardly rains here.
We did see a film about the area but obviously I’ve forgotten half of it and can’t really explain the rest. It is all amazing though, honest.
Back in town we fuelled up the bikes ready for the off tomorrow. We aren’t planning to go far so there’ll be no hurry packing up.
Still a 10/10 day so don’t worry that we’re not enjoying things, it’s still......
Two happy people, two happy bikes!
