Day 90: Mullewa to Cervantes

This morning I got up early to go for a walk along the Mullewa Bushland Trail. It was still rather wet after the previous nights rain, so some of the everlasting were still closed, but it was a lovely walk through fields of wildflowers. I even found a few native orchids along the way. After the walk I headed back to camp to pick up the kids and drive out to Pindar (a small town to the east of Mullewa) to see the wreath flowers. The wreath flowers, with their ring of blossoms, are plants that people come from all over to see, so there were plenty of signs to help us find them on the side of the road.

Afterwards we drove back to Mullewa to hook up the caravan and head south to Cervantes via Mingenew. Along the way we passed fields of barely, wheat and canola with - of course - wildflowers in between. Once we arrived at the RAC Cervantes Caravan Park the kids went exploring the playground and surrounds before dinner while John and I set up camp.
