STROLLING POINT SAMSON

Saturday we intended to travel out to Roebourne to partake in the local celebrations but our F Truck would not start.  Flat as flat!!!!!!!!

This is at Roebourne representing 150 years that this town was formed.  It shows the local aboriginal stories as well as the industries and farming of this area.

So instead we took a stroll around the local park before stopping in at the tavern for lunch. Yummy fresh fish.  This township originated when a jetty was built here in 1904 to accommodate larger ships rather than Cossack (hence the decline of that township).






Watched lots of whales pass this place during the week we stayed here.

Such fresh seafood makes my mouth water

This is all that is left of the old jetty here at Point Samson

This is the engine and carages that loaded goods onto the ships
