Denham

by in Trip, Western Australia

It took me ages to get to sleep which had the advantage that I didn’t wake up until I had breakfast in bed made by my lovely wife 🙂

The dogs slept through the night and after that slow start we were at around 9 am on the road. Today we would go slow, look at the different places along the road. The first was Shell beach and very different from all the other Shelly beaches in Australia, this one has earned its name.

The dogs are less impressed by the shells and check out the water and Nossi can’t stand still.

Until Marjo casts her magic spell.

Then we all have fun with the shells.

Dotti seems to dread the shells on her head but then settles into the inevitable.

We make another stop at a sea aquarium but it’s too commercial for our liking so we go onto Denham while passing some nice vistas.

Denham is a small village with 400 people has all we need. Water (to buy as it is desalinated and at a cost), fuel, groceries, gas (for cooking) which is really good. This is our second refill bottle of 3.7 kg in almost 4 months. Also we find a set of reef shoes so I can go kiting again 🙂

Then we find a camping where dogs are allowed and we can do the laundry.

We find some shells with stripes that go in an unexpected direction.

And then mistakenly almost walk to the wrong bus with trailer.

Ok, I need glasses.

Marjo cooks a yummie dinner and we have a refreshing desalinated-water shower before going to bed. Another great day!
