We awoke to still more flies but got on and did some school work. In the afternoon we had a look at Hamelin Pool and the world heritage stromatolites (they look a bit like black cauliflower). We also had a look at the quarry where they have mined shell which they make into building blocks for many historic buildings including a house on the Homestead stay.

Hamelin we are headed today a reasonable drive north to a Homestead, The place we are staying at was originally a sheep farm and has shearing quarters. A great place to stay it’s much nicer than most caravan parks with nice toilets and showers and a communal camp kitchen. The best thing was that we got to light our first fire and toast marshmallows. The worst thing is the fly population has grown about 20 times what it was in Kalbarri.
