From one paradise to another

Many hours on the road saw us leave the Tropics (“sniff”) and head down south. Crossing back over the tropic of Capricorn was expected however we were disheartened when we later passed the sign saying “26th parallel - you are now leaving the North West” but it was jubilation again when we passed a similar sign heading back up the Peron Peninsula greeting us to the North West.
The landscape changed from red soil to whiteish and now back to red sand dunes covered with stumpy tea tree and pampas grass.
We arrived in Monkey Mia just before sunset and will stay for 3 nights – our last rest before the long trek home.
This is a very special place – updates to follow.
Very scratchy internet connection – not sure when you will be seeing this Dear Blogger.
