Today we were on the road again and heading towards Carnarvon. This is about 350km from Shark Bay and let me explain that in between Carnarvon and Shark Bay is two roadhouses (not towns just roadhouses) and that is it! Nothing else on the road! We have had a few people say wow you are travelling huge distances but there is nothing in between these towns! It's incredible the size of this state and makes you realise just how populated the east coast is in comparison.
Saw a few more emus on the road, a few wild goats and even a wild cat!
Arrived in Carnarvon and there was 7 caravan parks to choose from and as this is not a touristy town there was no issue with getting into the parks. Picked a park on the outskirts of town and set up for 4 nights.
We are meant to be delivering boat to buyer in Carnarvon which was main reason for coming here but after a few phone calls we can't seem to get in contact with him and have come to conclusion he may have gone away longer than expected for school holidays. We are only here till Saturday so if we don't hear from him by then the boat will continue to be on the roof until the next town we advertise it in!
Had a bit of a look around town, not much here, I have read that Carnarvon provides fruit and veg to 80% of the state so everywhere you look are fruit trees and veggie patches and this pretty much drives the town. There is a woolies and a target country but other than that minimal shops.
Back to camp for dinner and rest and tv! And OMG everyone has died on home and away since I last saw it!
