Today we drove. And drove. And drove... all we saw on the nearly 700 km was red soil, scrubs, and dead kangaroos. Never mind though as we are now in Carnarvon (no castle and incorrect spelling), some 367km short of our 'diving' destination - Exmouth. We have tentatively booked onto a couple of dives - they have done us a stupidly cheap rate. It would have been more expensive to do one whale shark snorkelling trip. The weather up here, whilst not as hot as back home, is fine and about 25 degrees. Tropical compared to the south coast.

Carnarvon itself is a small, and shut town - it's 5pm on a Saturday here and everything is closed...that's about all to say about it really.
