We were headed north to
The park was a pleasant visit. Standing amongst banksias and Australian grass trees, I envision Rangers having our camps here. We stumbled upon wild kanga’s in an open field with an unperturbed Aussie practicing his boomerang tosses. What an authentic Aussie sight!
Moving on from Yancep we went further north to Lancelin a small town nestled between the ocean and white sand dunes. I was leaping in excitement when I saw the endless snow white dunes. We rented 2 sandboards from a local store and trudged into the colorless desert.
The drive to the Pinnacles seemed never ending. I thought to myself, it better be worth the drive, since I heard both good reviews and bad reviews about it. Having tasted (literally) white sand, we found ourselves staring at acres of yellow sand with natural ‘stalagmites’ sprouting from the ground. What beauty, although quite eerie if you actually stand amongst the towering rocks.
With Terence and his cowboy hat – give us two pistols and we’d have a shoot out there. Or better yet, paintball with all the obstacles in place!
Our pit stop for the day – Orchard Glory Farm. We inched our way to the farm and finally reached before sundown. The only problem was, we had no dinner. We had cozy farm house with every necessary facility at our expense but no food to cook! The nearest eatery was 22 km’s away and we were sick of sticking our bum to the seats. So we tried our favor at asking the farmer is he had any provisions to spare. He gleefully gave us 2 cups of rice, potatoes, bread, eggs, milk and some packets of cereal. He even threw in 2 bottles of wine but we returned it back. You guess is right… We had a simple farm dinner (or so I call it).
