Wow! Playing catch up with some trip updates but this one was super cool - the Pinnacles are a crazy desert of worn limestone structures created over time that pop up all around looking like a series of tiki stumps or a random stonehenge.
The national park has a road that traverses through the area, allowing you to enjoy the pinnacles from the safety of the car (the flies were abysmal).
It's only a short drive, about 3 km, so we did it twice, jumping out quickly to capture a picture of two.
The other attraction of the area is in the nearby town of Cervantes where we treated ourselves to the west coast lobster (crawfish). Quite yummy but still nothing beats Maine lobster, especially from Cranberry Island!
We did have some pretty beautiful down the coast but we were on a mission for Perth. One stop that deserves a photo though was a camp north of Cervantes tucked in the dunes called Sandy Cove Recreational Park.
Then on to Perth.
Who visits Perth and never enters the city? We did. We spent a week in Fremantle getting a new tray for Albert and a general service to keep him going. It appears the tracks we've conquered thus far have taken a beating to the aluminum tray on the back of the vehicle so we upgraded from a 1 tonne tray to a 3 tonne one, then back on the road we went.
