We went for a ride around town. Witch is very small. But over on the sea front.
they are very busy building. Houses and Mariana .
They are also making Canals
The houses are all build with steal frames.
and all the walls are steel corrugation.
After this we went for a ride to the end of the Island.
Were we had a look at a Turtle Center
When the Turtles come to lay there eggs they keep watch on them.
After the babies are borne they help them make it to the sea.
After we went up the hill to see the Lighthouse.

We resided to go see Dampier after driving through Karratha
Had a stay to one side of the road to let a wide load through.
This is a road going in to Dampier with salt lake each side of the train track.
But the length of the train wow. So long
They are making Lovely park lands down by the sea.
Lovely drive along the beach road.
Further down the road you can see all the large Iron Ore ships.
Witch is dug up from the.
Pilbara Region of Western Australia .
It is one of the major exports of Iron Ore with a total of .
100 Million Tonnes being sent overseas per year.
