We're currently in Denham and we did the tour of the the beaches today. The photo below was taken as we headed around to Shell Beach. The view of the beaches from the roads are beautiful. The water is so clear you can just sit and look at it all day.



This is Shell beach, it is all small shells that have washed up on the beach for years. They harvest the shells for yep, shell grit, keep all those chooks and their eggs in good shape.



We visited Hamelin Pool and Shell block Quarry which was a two hundred klm trip up and back. They also had the Stromatolite that grow just behind the caravan park in the shallow waters. It's a very interesting place to visit and the area is full of those Stromatolites. They still use some of the compacted shell grit that are cut into blocks and are only used to repair the buildings in town when needed.

Tomorrow we head off to Monkey Mia and feed the dolphins. Well you have tobe picked out of the crowd of people that turn up everyday. Anyway that's what you have to do if you want to see the cute little things. I will be going fishing while Gabriella does a cruise around the coast. The next day we do some four wheel driving up to Francois Peron National park to check out the scenery.
