Just had to stop for a photo shoot at One Steel Lookout. There are great views.  It is just before you enter Ardrossan.  It is a BHP Lookout.  At the back is remnants of an old open cut mine. It is chicken feed to the Kalgoorlie one. At the front huge grain silos can be seen which is this picture. Also Ardrossan township too.  Passed Tiddy Widdy Beach, ,Price, Port Clinton took a trip in to see it and Port Arthur.  Most of these port places are the same. We're heading on to Port Wakefield and Balaclava where we've booked a van site for the night. Caretaker looks after it so when we arrived there was no key for toilet and showers until we saw the caretaker but the washing machine door was open. There was a statue made of iron of a roo and an emu at the Rest Area. Crossed Wakefield River.  Drove in to Port Wakefield.  It would have sandflies at the van park being so close to mangroves growing in the river.  It has BP, United and Shell fuel stations, a Tucker Time Shop, a Budget Motel, a Hotel, and the Rising Sun Hotel, Chicken and Seafood Shop, a Bakery, Matthews Fish and a school.  You would encounter mangroves at the boat ramp and may be sandflies.  It has a Men's Shed and Holiday Cottages.  Our last stop for the day was to a van park at Balaclava for the night.  It is RV Friendly.
