A little bit more of Shark Bay

When I wrote the Shark Bay post I left out a couple of funny things that we saw. I just had to share! They were too good to keep to myself.

Firstly, while we were driving between Carnarvon and Denham we stopped at a rest stop (about 100km south of Carnarvon) which was high up on a hill and had a great view. Once we got up there we noticed some mounds on another part of the hill which had coloured things on them. They looked a bit like cairns and I thought perhaps they were memorials for people who had died.

This is the view of the mounds in the distance that we thought we would investigate.

So we walked over to have a look and were astonished to find the following! This one is a random collection of rocks and other items that people have added to when they have called in for some reason.... Not particularly interesting but ....

then there was this one, which was bizarre. A collection of gnomes!

And this is the view that the gnomes were enjoying.

You can just see Hamlin Pool (part of Shark Bay) in the distance.

The other funny thing that we saw was this house that we drove past in Denham .

It had teapots stuck onto the fence all the way around the front and down the side. There must have been a couple of hundred of them. I wonder what they would do if they wanted to sell the house?

We also saw another house that had the whole front yard paved with the words 'Everton FC' spelled out in pavers in the middle, and another house that had a whole garden bed full of kangaroo statues!!

I love it when we see unexpected quirky things!
