John had discovered a station about 50kms north and we all agreed to go and check it out. The others are continuing on north and we are at the crossroads decided which way we will go. It is getting really hot now and will only get hotter and more humid the further north we go so we are thinking of heading south and then east. Anyway on to the station. it is a working cattle station with about 18kms of coastline and 500,000 acres. It incorporates a caravan park with 24hr power (not common in this part of the world). It is very peaceful and there are only 3 other vans here. Can you believe someone is here from Busselton! Just about everywhere we go there is someone from Busselton. Later in the day a group of about 20 arrived who were heading to Broome but had to make an unscheduled stop due to a bushfire on the road north. Not a great deal to do here - fishing is a big activity with two creeks nearby and the beach. Although the tides here are huge and when we went to check out the beach the tide was about 1km away! At the creek the guys caught a few fish, catfish and whiting. John caught a sea snake. There is no swimming at the creek or beaches due to bull sharks, crocs don’t seem to be such an issue. It is really beautiful down at the creek especially with the sun setting. Due to the huge tides though have to pick the times to fish.
