25 Oct 2012 - Day 7: Northampton historic town and Geraldton Lighthouse

After about 3 hours drive from Denham, we reached a historic town, Northampton.  It is a quiet small town with several churches and an old railway that no longer in use.

From Northampton, it's another 2 hours drive before we reached Geraldton.  We first went to lighthouse monument by St Georges Beach before going to town for our lunch.

 After lunch, we drove to a nearby lighthouse at Point Moore.

We have visited many lighthouses in the past and one common observation is that it's always very windy in that area.  In the below video, you can see that it's like a mini sand storm by the beach.  In order not to have sand gets into our eyes, we can only face one direction, and moved like crabs....haha.....

Our accommodation for tonight was where we stayed four nights ago, Best Western Hospitality Inn Geraldton.  After we checked in, we decided to go by the coast to have a last look of Geraldton.  Then it's playground time.

There was also a Yellow Submarine and a statue of Hero of Batavia nearby.

We bought some food back to our room and rest for the day.
