This is yesterday's blog, just a little late!

We left our top of the hill campsite, as is usual for us, last to leave although the 2nd last was just in front of us. Shark Bay was our destination, duly reached late morning. First stop was the stromolites at Hamelin Pool, these are inert or apparently inert 'mats' on rocks. They actually contain large numbers of tiny creatures, too small to see, in a sort of village environment and they do eventually grow to protrude from the water in a mushroom shape. Next stop was Shell Beach and if you have she'll grit on the bottom of a bird cage it probably comes from here. They also have, in the past, built buildings from shell blocks and now only make the shell blocks to repair these buildings. This was a very interesting beach, the shell are tiny little cockle shells supposedly up to 9 metres deep and the shoreline was quite wide with lots of little hills running parallel to the shore. 

We finally made it to our campsite at Fowlers Camp after phoning to book the site, which you can only do on the day and you can only stay one day.
