This is part of the Perth to Broome series.

Hamelin Pool – Carnarvon : 198kms/2hrs

Greeted in the morning by a mild rain. This is in contrast to Perth Metro which were having a heavy downpour. What a difference 700km apart would do.

I was waiting for my coffee at the roadhouse when one of the staff, a bubbly Chinese girl asked me – “Aren’t you a frequent diner at XXX Restaurant?” (XXX is a famous Halal, Chinese restaurant in Perth. Not the other XXX okay?).

Wow. Its either she is very good at remembering faces or I frequented that place way too much. She is currently working there due to shortages of staff in the country area.

About 50kms north from Overlander Roadhouse, we saw a few hills with 2WD road access to ascend to the top. We went up and were rewarded with 360 degrees view of surrounding lands. Most would call it empty; I call it peace.

Unfortunately neither my camera nor skills were sufficient to capture the beauty of the area. I just had a look again on Google Maps and found there names below.

Things to do along the way
1. Wooramel Lookout / Gladstone Scenic Lookout
2. Stop at 26th Parallel signboard (there is another one near Denham).

Until then – stay hungry, stay safe.
