Entrance To West Cape Howe

While the fires were burning in Margs, we were camping at Parry Beach which is West of Denmark.  Fires were also furiously burning 15kms North of Denmark & another fire just above us in the hills.  What a crazy fews days it was for everyone, it must have been quite scary for all concerned!  We were thankfully perfectly safe where we were camping, bottom of a hill, basicly on the beach.  Parry Beach is an awesome camp spot, hot solar showers, great shady trees, & beautiful beaches nearby, its also just a short drive from beautiful Denmark & Walpole.  Driving around these parts is awe-inspiring, the trees are phenomenal!  So huge and towering above you, they feel like they have been there forever, with their beaming energy glowing all around.  If you have never been to this area, you need to get there.  We have explored this amazing area before, so we did not go to the tree top walk or to the tingle tree, instead we stuck to the coast!  West Cape Howe however I have never been too, this place is another one of those wild untouched coastlines, crazy hard core 4WD tracks, high hills that the para-gliders & hand-gliders dream of!  Shelley Beach is captivating! 

Back In Dunsborough…

for a couple of days at least!  We had a few jobs to complete here, & I’m terribly sorry to all the people I did not get a chance to catch up with!  I miss all my friends dearly!  But we had so many jobs to do & we really want to get to Tassi while its warm!  I did manage to photograph my beautiful friend Alice, & her amazing son Tom, Alice is 20 weeks pregnant & since I won’t be around to photograph her in her later pregnancy I took a couple now.  There's also a pic of Phoenix I'd like to share, this was taken by my wonderful friend Narlea who is an amazing photographer based in Dunsborough, I just edited the photograph myself. I look forward to seeing everyone again in a year or so.xxx

Coronation Beach & Lancelin…

Heading down south, we stayed at Coronation Beach, just above Geraldton, the campsite was lovely, with new toilets etc, & the kiting not too bad for Fabe either, there were heaps of wind surfers out.  I didn’t really take too many pictures here, none worth showing you guys anyway!  Lancelin was just lovely, Fabian had a kite surfing competition on at Wedge Island, which he did extremely well in, & since last years trip to Wedge I decided to stay in Lancelin for the day with Phoenix.  We were staying at the Lancelin Caravan Park, which is full of old caravans, good fun to wander around, I love the old vans, they have so much character!

Turtle Rock…

Wow!  What a place, we headed back to Warroora Station for a week staying at the other end of the station on 14 mile camp.  We totally got blown out over the last two days, however we still enjoyed our time here.  We headed to 5 finger reef & turtle rock, both of which, represent their names & needless to say we were definitely not disappointed.  What an amazing array of sealife North West WA has.  We once again saw so many tutles, I & Phoenix also were in awe!  A downer to the last two days was that we found two dead turtles a day apart, so sad!  There are many reasons that this may be, partly could be natural causes & another reason could be that a natural food source for the turtles is jellyfish which strangely enough ‘plastic’ looks like when it floats in the ocean, yet again another reason for every human to be more careful with their rubbish & minimise their waste products that they consume.

Coral Bay Sprinkler Fun

The tourist mecca of Coral Bay is truly beautiful even though its extremely touristy & full of people, I still like it.  I love the fact that you can snorkel right off the beach, that massive snapper come up to you in a foot of water & that Phoenix can play safely in the amazingly clear, clean, shallow water & absolutely feels safe & ecstatic.  Remember to take all your supplies to this place though, everything is expensive!  A potato costs $2.50 & a brocolli $4 & you have to pay for water too!  Most of the above pictures were taken at Turquoise Bay in the Ningaloo Marine Park, so amazing, if you get a chance to snorkel there, do so! xxx

Ok so I'm really behind in blog posts...due to the fact that I have had no internet connection for quite some weeks.  I have currently hit SA, so am going to be posting some very late WA photos shortly.  xxx
