The Journey

The Journey
Approximately 9996km. WOW. That's a lot of k's. Update 24th June 2012 bit of a miscalculation - we actually travelled 17154 kilometres. Now that really is a lot of k's.

Port Hedland to Karijini National Park

Port Hedland Rio Tinto Salt
We left Port Hedland pretty late today. Trying to catch up on the blog and several stops for diesel, engine oil (the Pajero is due for a service) and other things.










One of the many road trains we over took

The Pilbara is an amazing place. The dirt is the deepest red. Huge mountains and ranges rise from the ground out of nowhere. We arrived at Karijin and had fun banging our tent pegs in. We had to come up with some interesting ways to secure the camper awning. The first walk we attempted was the Dales Gorge walk, including Fortescue Falls, Fern Pool and eventually Circular Pool; however forty minutes into the gorge walk, guess who split his head open; John boy. Well he did need another scar.
