Today we packed up reasonably early to drive down the coast around 300 or so kilometres to Eighty Mile Beach. It was just a highway drive but still interesting as the landscape changed shape a bit and we got to see a dingo.
There was a fuel stop at a roadhouse that we wanted to get fuel but when we arrived the line to the diesel bowser was back out along the highway!! We carry a spare drum of diesel in the back of the ute so after a quick calculation I decided we would just have enough to get us to the next roadhouse after our stay at eighty mile beach.
We arrived at Eighty Mile Beach Caravan Park and it was packed and jammed in like sardines. We set up camp on the very red dirt and had a look around the place.
It is just a caravan park in the middle of no where but on the most spectacular white sand and blue water beach that in fact goes for 80 miles.
The caravan park had a little pop up markets so we spent a heap of time looking at the 4 little stalls which were mostly books, so karen bought another 5 kilos worth of books. Yes I count them in weight, not actual books hahaha
We of course spent plenty of time down at the beach where Karen collected 500 grams of shells :)
Back at camp we had tea and went to bed.
