Geralton is not only a bright sunny subtropical city, it is the gateway to a very interesting hinterland. During spring, the countryside blooms with millions of wild flowers sprinkled down the sides of a number of country roads.

Geralton is also the memorial for the HMAS Sydney which was lost in a battle off this coast in WW2. Photos of the memorial are included below.

It is a somber fact that though these brave mariners lost their lives, we have a freedom and life that may have been quite different.

But as we left Geralton and drove up to the hinterland plateau we felt the creator's peace and just loved the days in the bush.

Though the roads may be narrow
And the location remote,
Our hearts so rejoice
As the miles role by.
Monet cannot compete,
Natures canvas excels,
Colour, texture, glory
Excede our ability to tell.

Enjoy the images below.
