Day 11-13 Kalbarri

We stayed at Kalbarri for 3 nights. There are a lot of attractions at Kalbarri, including horse riding, the National park (Murchison Gorge), Pelican feeding, canoeing, sandboarding and a jumping pillow at the caravan park. We couldn't do everything because we didn't have enough time!

Liv and Mum went horseriding along the river. Liv's horse was called Bonnie and Mum's horse was called Kicker. Mum did cantering through sand and around lots of corners and Liv went trotting through the water. Henry and Will went on a pony ride - Henry with Magnus and Will with Chloe.

On our last day we got up early to watch the Pelican feeding. We saw a man feeding the Pelicans - at first only two Pelicans were there but then a third one came along. They ate raw fish. Pelicans can fly up to two weeks non-stop with no food, and at speeds up to 100 miles per hour. They move around to different places throughout the year. Australian Pelicans are unique because they have yellow rings around their eyes and a yellow tip on their bills.

We also visited Murchison gorge. We went for a walk into the gorge. Despite all the rain we had in Kalbarri, the river was not running.

We had an awesome time in Kalbarri even though the Bombers lost to the Hawks!
