Roving Reeves: Kalbarri, flies and caravan park

Kalbarri was our next stop, we booked into a caravan park due to school holidays. We thought it would be hard to get accomodation but it hasn't seemed to be the case luckily.

The boys hadn't seen Kalbarri so we took them out to the coastal gorges and the inland gorges, which Caleb was very unimpressed to see more walking involved.

There is a plague going on at the moment that we came across as soon as we hit Kalbarri, it wasn't as apparent in the caravan park itself but as soon as we hit the coastal gorges we understood why everyone was walking around with fly nets on. The Flies are beyond belief. We have spoken to heaps of locals since and they've never seen anything like it either. The fly nets help dramatically but the little critters crawling all over your skin creep you out after a few days of it. Adult Tantrum coming up - hehe

We have had a few laughs at peoples expense with many doing a dance before getting in their cars, trying valiantly to lose the flies before entering their vehicle. It doesn't really work as it takes you another 20 mins to get rid of the ones that couldn't be 'danced off'.
