Left Kalbarri this morning and caught up with Ian & Di for lunch at Billabong Roadhouse before going our separate ways, with us staying 3 nights at Hamelin Station while they continued through to Denham/Shark Bay.

Loved the station stop, no power or water other than limited fresh tank or bore water, decent showers but very salty, very friendly stop, attended happy hour (s) every night and met some great fellow travellers. 

We are without our awning as of Thur Aug 2nd, wouldn't retract so had to manually push it back and tie down with okky straps until we can find a repairer. Under warranty but not sure if that will count when we are so far from major city areas now.

Check out the photos and story on the Stromatolites at Hamelin Pools, also the 120km Shell Beach which in areas is 10metres deep with shells.
