Day 39 – 27th June – Whim Creek

After one of our longest stops yet (4 nights) it was time to pack up and head for Port Hedland.  We had heard about a place called Whim Creek about half way between Roebourne and Port Hedland.  Whim Creek is another one of those historical towns that in the early 1900s was a booming mining town… now it is just a pub… and a very nice one at that… 



Dave thought that having to drive a whopping 80km to get to Whim Creek constitutes as “hard work” and so he deserved a beer… 


From Whim Creek to Port Hedland… where the road into town is lined with salt piles, ore trains and ore loading facilities everywhere you look…
