Another day in paradise, this one is Cleaverville which is about halfway between Roebourne and Karratha on the Pilbara Coast. I keep thinking that we are a lucky generation, we have facilities and the money to do trips like this and the countryside is still relatively unspoilt. I say unspoilt with a little tongue in cheek, it is very different from our parents day, but there are still large areas that are undeveloped but are serviced by good roads which provide access to nice camp areas like this.

This morning started with a walk along the beach, my first beach walk for this trip. We are parked about 30 meters from the water at high tide and about 200 meters at low tide! So beach walks are interesting, the morning walk was more or less high tide but there were still nice little rocks and shells to see. Later in the morning Elaine and I walked again, this time the tide had started receding and there were more shells to pick up. Also noticeable as the tide recedes are big rocks, lots of them, making the shoreline inhospitable to boats.

Then followed a leisurely day with the now habitual fire and sundowner. Surprisingly we were the instigators of the sundowner despite the fact that most of the people here are regulars and in for a month or more.
