Ravensthorpe, Hopetoun 4 mile beach

Ravensthorpe, Hopetoun 4 mile beach

Left Waychinicup National Park, at 9 am after coffee & Muslei for breakfast. 

Headed into Bremer Bay , had lunch sitting at the beach (cheese bread & a banana) & headed out via gravel roads to link back up with Hwy 1. The gravel turned to dirt & in a few places mud with water right across the road. I tractored through & the knobbies worked a treat. I realised as I rode on that the sides of the road were fill of water & super boggy, I was keen to get out as there had clearly been a very high rain fall. I meet up with HWY 1 after about 80k. 

I arrived in Ravensthorpe, Hometown 4 mile beach, at 4 pm it was getting darkish & starting to rain. I  got the tent up fast & jumped in 1/2 hr later it stopped, & went out for a walk. The beach is amazing, silicone white sand & beautiful turquoise water. 

It dark quick. I cooked up Debs, baked beans & grated cheese( from a packet). Then chocolate & two beers. 

It had been a big day. I am only 200k out of Esperance. Then I will head north to the warmer weather! 

Forecast appears to be rain, let’s see what is happening in the morning.
