Drove out to Dampier and had a look around with a visit to
the Red Dog statue. We had watched the movie earlier in the trip and had
listened to the talking book Red Dog by Louie deBernieres so we really had to
visit the statue.
After that we had a look around Dampier which included the
Mermaid Hotel which was also in the movie. On to the Burrup Peninsular which
included a view of the Karratha Gas Plant which is pretty impressive. The wind
was howling today so there was an incredible amount of dust over the ocean
which gave it an almost eerie feel to it.
Karratha Gas Plant
Hearson Cove, I would think it was grade A+ conditions for
the kite surfers today.
A bit of a look around Karratha and a quiet afternoon and
getting ready for our longest day of driving for a while to Exmouth.
