Day 19 – Kalbarri – 143 km – 7598 km Total.

Had a nice day looking around Kalbarri. 

Revisited the cliffs from the rain yesterday and went out the the Murchinson River Gorge while it was sunny.  Got to see two pods of dolphins off one of the lookouts and had another wildlife encounter on the bike when I nearly ran over a lizard that is area is know for.  Very odd looking thing as it legs looked way too small for the body.  Had a chinese group trying to figure why the bike was parked on the road with the hazards on as the lizard was in no real hurry to get off the road.  They soon got the idea when I pointed out the lizard.

Found a really nice beach to go for a walk on which I did late this afternoon just before in rained again.  The beach was quite rocky and it had very large wave breaking about 50m off the each.

The Vstrom has had its oil change thanks to a five litre spring water container that was in the bin.

Off to Shark Bay/Denham which is about a 400km run in the morning and then Monkey Mia on Tuesday morning to hopefully see the dolphins.

  1. 19 days into it and it seems like you’ve covered such a huge area already Neil! I guess the further North you go the less populated it will be and towns/villages will be few and far apart. Glad Kenneth now understands where his mother country is :-)

    • Today was a good example. Approx 400 km to Dunham. Two farm houses, two roadhouses and a couple of comms towers. Thats all there was. And two intersections.
