On the road again!

Our destination for the day was Karijini NP via Tom Price. The latter is in my top ten forgettable towns. Older mining towns tend to all look the same, dominated by a massive slag heap overshadowing everything and thick dust covering tired looking buildings and homes. But now they all have a Woollies which must make life easier for the families living there as  well as great for wanderers like us to stock up. Woollies are like Mackers - the same everywhere.

We were back in iron ore heaven and there are two forms of transport that are always in your face.  The first is the trains that you cannot take in in one glance.

That black line in the middle of this shot, again taken on the move (John has still resisted cleaning the windscreen), is a train. Not all of it is in the photo.

   The second sort of transport is the thousands of white Toyota blowflies with a red flag streaming behind them, swarming all over every red road in the mining country.

Miss Snailhouse got fed up with these blow flies blowing dust in her face and decided to do something about it !!

No idea what she has been up to but she sure looks cute!!
