Yesterday we visited some pretty beaches at Bottle Bay, Cape Peron and Herald Bight. At Cape Peron we walked along the cliff to Skipjack Point Lookout and we spotted a Ray down below, though we weren't sure if it was alive or not because it was staying in the one spot and last time we saw Rays they were jumping out of the water.
Today we packed up out tents and drove back to Blue Dolphin Caravan Park and collected the caravan and drove off to Hamelin Station Stay. Hamelin Station is a beautiful farm stay in the bush and recently they had shut down the sheep station but I still got to explore it. On the way we stopped at Shell Beach which is entirely made of Cockle Shells and the water is two times saltier than the normal ocean.
Back at camp, we met up with our friend Rob who camped with us at Margaret River and Parry Beach. After we looked around the beautiful buildings we had a little walk around a perfect lake with little birds, Swans and some other birds I don't even know what they were. Then we drove to look at the Stromatolites which were the first forms of life all the way back 3,500 million years ago. They just look like rocks and you wouldn't even be able to tell the difference between them. They live in the salty sea and they breath and produce oxygen just like trees. We had to go on a board walk over the Stromatolites because they take millions of years to grow just a foot tall and if we step on them it will take even longer to grow. There is still car tracks on them from when there was no rules. Then we had dinner at the fabulous camp kitchen because it was so beautiful.
