On our way to Esperance we stopped for the night at a rest Area called Kundip Rest Area. We were the only one's there and was a bit frightening. I was praying that we don't get kidnapped or killed during the night.
Not far from where we park a car, there was what seemed to be a shack of some sort made out of tin standing there with a few things around. We didn't see anyone in it or near by but my mind took over and I instantly thought of the chainsaw massacre or some thriller movie event.
We made it thru the night and was quite peaceful - no one around meant peace and quite. After making breakfast we went exploring - we came across this chair that is just sitting looking towards where our van is parked. Everything around it is burnt but the pillow on it isn't! I looks like someone was sitting looking over us or at us creeping a bit. I wanted to get out of there.
Before we did we came across a heritage walk which was quite fascinating to think in 1901 there was a full blown town running with people of different ages going to school, working etc now 112 years later I am standing on the spot someone might have stood years back looking at what they we're looking at. Gave me such chills and enjoyment learning about history first hand.
I quite liked how they set the walk out. you walked where the train tracks use to be and some spots still are (or the remains of it) and all around you can find some bolts that kept the tracks in place. We wanted to walk the whole track back didn't think we would in the first place so never took any water with us and besides that it was in the bush and no form of communication for if we got lost.
I would have like to see all the old building that were down the track and some spots they mined at. For this experience we give Kundip Rest Area a 2/5 Carrots.
We were not eaten by the people sitting on those chairs and for the history in the area made it very interesting.
Next stop Esperance - Yay
