MURPHYS HAYSTACKS

Murphys Haystacks is naturally sculptured from pink Hiltaba Granite and said to be some 1500 million years old. Their present form is believed to have been established at least 100,000 years ago. Well worth a stop and a look, it's quite amazing really.

CAMP COODLIE

Initially a tad disappointed this camp wasn't by the beach as it appeared to be on the map, and after getting over the feeling of being back at school camp all those years ago, this really is a great little bush camp.

Well laid out, swag huts for those in tents and swags to stay off the ground and under shelter, well fitted out camp kitchen, and fireplaces located throughout. But the highlight I think is both the novelty and eco friendliness of the bucket showers.

The shower room is a setup of cubicles made from oyster racks with buckets on a pulley system - it was good fun and actually a pleasant way to shower. $10 bucks a night with a flushing toilet, this was a good place to stop.

We were also joined by Jan and Wendy, two single ladies travelling together each in their own van. We met them at Perlubie Beach, they followed us into Baird Bay and then we all caught up again here and then at Venus Bay. Fun girls living life to the full.
