Ma Maison Et Moi: Hamelin Pool....Bush Telegraph

After recovering from my tassle with the sand I headed for Hamelin Pool which is in the area of Shark Bay.I could have been on the Nullabor again as that is what the road was like north of Geraldton, long, straight and very remote except for the roadhouses.
I stopped at the Overlander Roadhouse for fuel and to have a look and also to check messages ,emails etc as there is no service in Hamelin Pool.
The caravan park at hamelin Pool is at the historic telegraph station and also where the Stromalites are.
It is in the middle of nowhere and its like stepping back in time and there is a little shop which is run by an assortment of backpackers and I'm served by a French girl who checks me in to the park,which means you basically park wherever you want.
Once i decide the best place to park to avoid the noise of the generator which runs full time i go for a walk over the sand dunes on the Boolagoorda walking track to see the stromalites.
On the way you go past a quarry where they used to cut blocks out of the sand,the sand is mixed with tiny shells and is really hard and the blocks were used to make some buildings in Denham years ago.The quarry is no longer in use except when blocks are needed to repair the buildings.
The track then takes you right along the foreshore where a walk has been made in to the water so you can see the Stromalites without ruining them.
I then returned to camp where i had a saltwater shower (No fresh water out here) and then bed.zzzzzz
