Fig Tree Crossing Rest Stop {Geraldton}

After originally planning a stop along the coast line outside of Geraldton we decided to try this little place.  Now it was listed as a free stop but the council have since done work on the site and are now charging a massive $5.50 per night.

It is a massive open space and there is still plenty of shade {and even though the sign says only 48 hours it appears some had been there longer with no comment from the council who come to collect the money every other day}.

We stayed for two nights in total which gave us a change to catch up on some school work, get some shopping done {including some more walking friendly shoes for me} and also have lunch with my grandparents who are on their way north for 'the winter'.

It was really lovely to watch the sunset & rise from a different location.  Surround by trees and farm land, listening to sheep.
