Kalbarri 22/3

Next stop was a stay in Kalbarri. The town was only formed in 1943 and is a picturesque tourist resort.





The main purpose of our trip was to visit the Kalbarri National Park. This is the view of Hawks Head Gorge.



In order to visit the park we did a lot of driving down unsealed roads. It felt and looked like you were driving in custard powder as the top sand layer was quite thick and a strong shade of yellow.



We went to see Nature's Window. To reach it involved walking through bush and climbing down the layered cliff face below.



And we've made it, just around the corner of the cliff face was Nature's Window and this is the view.



The plants are stranger here. Do you recognise this animal's head ? Yeah or Neighhhh !

Kalbarri also has a number of scenic cliffs along the coastline. Here's David at Castle Cove.



The views onto Island Rock and the Natural Bridge in the distance.



Its not all beautiful scenery and beaches, we do still have the wind to contend with.



It had been a long day. We had travelled for 3 hours to reach our destination and then went sightseeing for the rest of the day trying to cram in as much as possible.
