Kalbarri

On the 16th July we said farewell to "Coro" and drove north for about 70km to Port Gregory for lunch and an unsuccessful round of fishing. A highlight along the way wasn't another one of Ashleigh's teeth falling out this time but her thumb nail, that had turned black after a collision with a rock a few months ago, finally fell off! Port Gregory is a tiny seaside hamlet bordered by a pink lake that is pink because of the beta carotene produced there. Another short drive further and we arrived at the coastal town of Kalbarri and checked into the Anchorage Caravan Park where we scored a sceni spot overlooking the Murchison River. During the following days we hung out in this sleepy town, played some Petanque and ventured into the spectacular Kalbarri National Park where we explored river gorges and admired dramatic sandstone cliff faces. Anthony had a break from the Bateson clan that day and toured in Supersexy (Sean and Steph's VW) to some spectacular sections of the winding river gorge. That evening we camped in a free (and very basic) rest area at Galena Bridge and enjoyed steaks on the camp BBQ and hot bananas with chocolate and marshmallows for dessert!
