Murchison Station the kids in the wool shed.
Shell beach on the way out of Monkey Mia. The entire beach is made up of shells.
Arriving at Monkey Mia the temperature had dropped to around 22 degrees with a water temp of 21 and the wind was howling. In fact WA stands for "windy always" or "wait a while." We were a tad unlucky to experience the off shoot of the horrible Perth weather rain and 16degrees Eeeek and back on Melbourne its mid 20s. Anyway we thought Monkey Mia would be over commercialized but quite the contrary. We were lucky with a beach front camp site and we all went on a Catamaran trip to hunt down Dugongs which are a very shy animal similar to seals but a lot larger and here 12% of the Dugonggong population exists. The boys loved the boat and it was so relaxing lying on the trampoline like netting gazing skyward at the sails. One of my favourite spots is 14 mile beach, absolute beach front camping and the water was so turquoise. Whilst doing some late afternoon exercise looking out to the ocean a turtle pocked his head up. A tough spot to exercise.
