"Mate, there is nothing but red dirt north of Perth. Trust me, I lived up there for 15 years. Nothing but red dirt and old farts driving around oversized caravans."
Perth to Carnarvon
Why does everyone want to go up there (north of Perth)? Nothing but red dirt. So I was told by a local I met in the Perth.
Well I guess they were right, as the following photos show:
Red cliffs
Red rocks
Red sand dunes
Shells cemented in red soil
Not to mention the red artesian bore fed spa I enjoyed at Francois Peron National Park homestead. Red water, but at 40 degrees so very nice!
As is my way, I am generally only updating my blog once a week when I go seek out a town with a caravan park for a shower, a proper meal with red meat, a laundry and cheap internet access. Soooo, this week there are seven different blog entries covering the last nine days, it seemed the best way to sort it:
- The Dutchman Said (Geraldton)
- The Shifting Sands have Revealed... (The Pinnacles)
- Kalbarri National Park
- Seaside Towns beside Pink Seas
- Don't Feed the Wildlife (Monkey Mia)
- Four Wheel Drive Tracks (Francois Peron National Park and Steep Point)

You could have visited Woomera to see red dirt. At least, that's what I figure would be there, having never visited.
