It seems like a long time between posts, but we have just arrived back from 5 days at Ningaloo Reef (camping in the wilderness). Shark Bay provides a very important place in the world for marine animals. The areas of seagrass are the most important in the world. We sighted turtles and sharks swimming in the crystal clear waters.
Shell Beach was unbelievable, made up of billions of cockle shells. For our anniversary we ate in a restaurant in Denham called The Old Pearler which was constructed with building blocks made from naturally compressed cockle shells. Now it is only allowed to be used to maintain existing historic buildings constructed from the quarried shell blocks.
