Photos from Shark Bay

Limited internet and phone access at Steep Point prevented loading photos, so while we are in Carnarvon I'm loading a few.

 

One day the crews of Basanti and Tigress Too decided a walk to the lighthouse was in order.  Got us all off boats and exercising.  There are plenty of sand tracks to walk along, and we went up and down for hours before finally reaching the lighthouse.  What a disappointing little lighthouse...what a lonely little thing.

 

 The scenery was nice, brilliant blue ocean and bay and even spotted a few roos near the cliffs.

 We thought we'd never get here.

 

After the storms and big winds, we headed to Denham (written about in previous posts) and caught some fish!  Go Phil...yum!

 

Chris has to deal with the killing and filleting once Phil catches one.

 Once in Carnarvon is was time to relax.

 One day we went out to see the Museum of space and technology.  In the 1960's NASA had a tracking station here (just outside of Carnarvon).  It was a pretty large facility but shut down in the '80's and now becoming a museum.

 There are still a few huge antennae around the facility.

 

The weather is looking good next week for us to sail further along to the north.  We'll keep you posted.  Is anyone out there actually reading this??
