Friday, 21st September – Monkey Mia/Shark Bay to Exmouth Gulf

Somewhere on this long drive we stopped at a cafe miles from anywhere. On the forecourt was a rusty old bus hand painted in swirling bright colours and the words The Magic Bus on the side. Like something out of the 1960's. Probably was that old. It looked like it had crawled onto the forecourt and died! Sure enough, inside the cafe were a dozen young Aussies whose dreams of adventure had died alongside the bus. They were waiting to be rescued by a motoring organization or parents, whichever came first. The cafe owner told me, with eyes pointing heavenward, she was hoping they would be gone 'very soon'. I kinda felt sorry for them. We would never have attemped such a long journey in a rusty old crate like that in our younger days, would we girls! :-))
