Today we did leave our lovely beachside camping spot as we know there is supposed to be rain later today and storms in the coming days. We want to see the Pinnacles, a little further south, if we can in the sunshine. We drove through pretty little seaside towns including Leeman, Green Head, Jurien Bay and Cervantes, stopping to check out beaches, lookouts and the towns themselves along the way. We arrived at The Pinnacles in Nambung National Park around 2.30pm ...

We spent the day in Geraldton, and were impressed with the HMAS Sydney memorial and the beautiful (albeit very windy) coastline. We especially liked the point, which has...
