Day 89: Kalbarri to Mullewa
Today we were on the move once again. Our first stop was south of Kalbarri at Hutt Lagoon to see the pink coloured Lagoon. The lagoon is pink due to algae that produce carotenoid. This algae is used for things like makeup and food colouring.
We then headed to Geraldton for lunch and to pick up some groceries, as this was the first big city we had passed through since Broome. It was very windy so we did not spend much time in the city.
Once we were re-stocked we drove back inland to Mullewa, which is a small town in the middle of "wildflower country". We stayed at the Mullewa Caravan Park (overflow section). Once we unhooked the caravan I headed out on the wildflower walk that leaves from the entrance to the caravan park. It was a short 3km walk through fields of pink, while and yellow everlastings, hakea bushes, and pincushion flowers, with a few sculptures scattered along the way.
