Day 13 Peter Denny Lookout to Tenindewa Well ( Mullewa)

 So now we head west towards the coast . We will make our way through Sandstone ,Mt Magnet and onto Mullewa for out last free camp before Geraldton. Its still mostly mining country but it will change to crops once we get in closer. You may have noticed that we haven't mentioned any detecting stories . Couple of reasons - we didn't really have the time and it was quite difficult to work out where you could stop and not encroach on a lease . More complicated than Victoria. 

Did you know there was a London Bridge in Australia ? Well its outside Sandstone and the horse and cats used to go over the top of it. Nowadays, it has warning not to walk over it as it has become very unstable.

The rest of the day was  a shared drive and we ended our day at a free camp - Tenindewa Pioneer Well just outside Mullewa . Frequently visited during the wildflower season but just a couple of us there that night . 

Again great views but the FLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. So glad we had our fly veils with us . Never seen them so bad so make sure you pack one . On a more positive note . we had our first fire . Luckily the flies disappeared at sunset so we could sit out and enjoy a bit of satellite spotting. 

Tomorrow onto civilisation and Geraldton  - see how much it has changed since we lived here in the 90's.
