Kalbarri our stay - April 27th...

Back on line again and get read for a lengthy update .....No fish yet … we tried this morning and also this afternoon, we even fished where the others were, but still no luck. Not sure if the plastic bait is a goer yet …..or is it just the lack of experience.  The following day we visited the ‘Rainbow Bird Park’, it housed a huge array of birds from Parrots to Macaws. We then headed to the park for a sausage sizzle at the local beach and met a lovely couple traveling from out of the back of a station wagon. She was French and he was studying at Sydney Uni, one of his topics was politics, so this made for interesting conversation!!  We then headed to Natures window (pictured) located at the national Park. Chris & I visited there 8 years ago and had forgotten how beautiful it was. We also had our first serious introduction to fly’s….. do we love fly-nets!!
Before we left Kalbarri, Riley had to make sure he said goodbye to his new favourite pet... the white Cockatoo named Fred. Although we were not game to put our hand in the cage, Riley had Fred loving him, as he had his whole arm in the cage!! It was hard to watch, but worth it when he came out with no injuries.










 
The boys met a lovely little friend, along with the many others. Her name was Kammy (German origin) and was very cute……. the boys love her. They are travelling along a similar route as us, so we are catching up again at Hamelin Pool and Denham.  Each day there is so much to see and do, there is a never ending barrage of questions, and the boys are learning so much … I would not know where to begin.
We have to just take a moment and check out the boy’s injuries… we have a list a mile long, some even over the top of previous ones which have just healed. Although finally today there have not been so many accidents…. maybe they are getting more accustomed to the rugged outdoors, as usual they will learn the hard way.
