Exmouth, Cape Range nationa park
Continuing up north on the west coast we drove into Exmouth and around a point to Cape Range national park. The 2 kangaroo pictures above were taken early the next morning. The baby was on the road in front of us. We stopped and it just stood there looking confused, then hopped into the bush to be with it's mom. They look alike. The other one is a male, notice the muscles! I wouldn't get in his way.
We did some snorkeling in Turquoise Bay. It was getting quite windy because of cyclone Nicholas (the girls were giggling about the name of the cyclone Nicholas, they couldn't wait to tell you about it) off the north coast of Australia, but the bay was calm enough. The coral here was beautiful, huge brain coral, antler coral, and others I don't know the names of. We saw some great tropical fish including a large butterfly fish, black and white clown fish, and many others. The girls have learned to dive down to get closer looks at the little fish and sea cucmbers. We would have loved to do more snorkeling in other spots we were told about but the windy weather was only getting worse.
