3. Geraldton and Kalbarri

We spent a week in Geraldton so that I could windsurf. I was keen to return to Coronation Beach, where I had last been windsurfing in 1992… Back then there was no infrastructure, just an 8 km gravel road which led directly on to the beach where you parked. Now there is a caravan park, kiosk, toilets, and demarcated areas of the beach for windsurfers and kite boards. Time changes. It was a disappointing week for wind, but I nonetheless managed to get out on the water four times, three of those at Coronation Beach. Millie made a friend in Geraldton. Layla had been travelling with her parents and three siblings around Australia, and had decided to stop and buy a house in Geraldton. We also enjoyed Kalbarri a lot - seeing Nature’s Window, touring some of the coastline on quad bikes and doing a walk down to the Z bend.
