Dirty South, Real Name, No Gimmicks
Hey all, hope that your all doing well.
I last spoke from Canarvorn as we were doing laundry. We left and drove south to Shark Bay a world heritage area. We saw more stromatalites, hypersaline water, the worlds largest sea grass deposits, shell beach and all manner of crazy desert coast (the outback coast).
Now we were on the way to Monkey Mia where tons of tourists go to see dolphins come and be fed. It is a resorty place with heaps of French girls who spend hours every morning doing their makeup before they hit the water. We were going there and then we saw a sign for a place called NANGA on the way. Normally we would have driven past but a swiss guy we met at 80 mile beach said it was really good. We stopped in and it was. It was a run down "Resort" that was also a sheep station. We spent 2 days here playing tennis on the cracked court, swimming in the amoeba filled artesian 38 degree spa and generally kickin back. We walked 2km down the beach and found
A FUCKING SOUTHERN RIGHT WHALE 6 WEEKS DECOMPOSED AND WASHED ASHORE WITH SHARKS HAVING EATTEN ITS HEAD. FUCK FUCK FUCK. It was the most crazy thing I have ever seen.
We went on to Monkey Mia which was touristy but fun, except the only thing to do is watch the dolphins be feed and there are so many people and the constant sound of digital cameras so the zen conection with nature is somewhat lost. We headed back to NANGA after 1 night at MM and went to the whale at night. A dead whale on a desolate beach gave me much more zen than 5 dolphins eaching fish from people who watch a current affair but maybe thats just me.
We drove down today through KARBILI national park and are now in the town with the same name. There was a neo-hippy food cafe with fallafals and the like that we craved but it was shut so ate at a take-away. We are soon going to...

Bet ya didn't know that existed.
Anyway, I'll give you a shout out from Perth which we should arrive at from about the 25th but we'll see how things go.
Peace to all
