We found some dinosaur footprints this morning. After brekkie, we walked down onto the rocks and with the help of a fellow camper, found some prints, and also some really clear imprints in the rocks of a fern like plant. According to the camper, people from a university had been out the day prior looking at them, and confirmed they were dinosaur prints. Pretty cool.
We headed for Pender Bay this morning, 100 or so km further north. They are paving the road all the way to Cape Leveque, with an estimated completion of the end of 2020. So there was ALOT of roadworks happening. They had the traffic separate though, so we weren’t held up at all and the road was in good condition with minimal corrugations. We stopped in at the aboriginal community of Beagle Bay to have a look at the beautiful church. Inside is decorated with all sorts of shells, and the alter is covered in them. Very unique. The side road to Pender Bay was a sandy track, in good condition, however quite narrow. All part of the journey. The campsite at Pender Bay is amazing. A clifftop site with magnificent views over the bay. The afternoon was spent doing some laundry, swimming, walking along the beach and enjoying being in such a gorgeous part of the world.
