On the way we had a late night stop over with the worlds slowest fast food.... pizza! The order took nearly an hour to make. While Mum was waiting, the rest of us played in a park as it got dark. It was also really windy near the water here (Canarvon) that our thongs kept blowing away if you needed to take them off and we had to chase them.
On our way, early the next morning we visited a house made entirely of tiny shells and then we went to see the Stomolites - funny rock looking things made of bacteria.
To get to Steep Point we took the four wheel drive track which was really long and there were some steep up hill sandy bits and Team A got bogged, but only once. For lunch we stopped at a pull over spot which happened to have an amazing! view, water hitting the cliffs below and some beautiful tall cliffs that framed the perfect picture. Then after some more driving we found the blowholes. A blowhole is a gap in the cliff/rock that goes all the way to the water and every time the water washes up against the cliff/rocks the air inside of the crack will be forced out making a WHOOSH noise.
When we put an t-shirt over the hole it would go flying! Then Dad put a decent sized rock on the hole and that got blown off to hitting Josh (Team A) in the foot. oopps!
Finally we made it to the western most point of mainland Australia!!!!
That night we camped really close to the water, on the beach. There were lots of star fish skeletons and a steep hill behind the camp area which you could climb and look at the view over Shark Bay. It was pretty and awesome.
