Rottnest Island
6. tammikuuta 2022, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
After a week of driving we have finally stopped and we are settled in at Mandurah. a few day trips on the cards, first up Rottnest Island.

After missing out on this adventure in 2021 due to a Covid lockdown, we were all super keen to check it out.

This time Mel, Joel and Taj got to come with us. As we started on the ferry over Brett said “ I don’t know why we paid $155 for this, we could have brought the tinny over”! I told him that would be one Brett’s adventure he would have done on his own. I bet he was glad he decided on the paid ferry across, as on the way home it was so rough people on the top deck were getting wet by the waves 😂😂. I don’t think our little tinny would have made it. I was even starting to feel a bit under the weather with all the rocking.

When we arrived, I was super keen to find a quokka, it didn’t take long, we got off the ferry and headed for the bakery and on the way under a tree was a family of quokkas 🤗🤗🤗. I couldn’t believe our luck, there wasn’t even anyone one trying to get photos, so we sat down and got photos. It says no patting, but they were too hard to resist. We even saw the last remaining peacock on the island.

We decided against getting bikes and got the hop-on-hop off bus instead, and boy were we glad when we saw the hills and the puffed out people trying to ride up them.

We enjoyed relaxing and snorkelling at three beautiful beaches, breakfast and lunch on the island and then we treated ourselves to some beers and cocktails at the top bar before we left. We also squished in few more photo sessions with quokkas along the way. The last quokka in the park was my favourite, she had a baby in her pouch and was more than happy to smile and pose for the camera.Lue lisää

The fun continues, as the boys get into some jetty jumping on Rottnest Island. Then we headed to the bar for a relaxing drink.

What a great day! What a great start to 2022!

A busy week at Mandurah, crabbing, pedicures, day trips, installing hot water systems, installing car stereos, shopping, possum feeding, thrombolites, winery and on our last night Mandurah Grey Hound Races. So many late nights this week.

I think we need a holiday from our holiday, we are all exhausted 🥱.Lue lisää

Exploring Perth
8. tammikuuta 2022, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
Another big day, up at 4.30am to explore the big smoke.

Another activity we missed out on last time we were in Perth, due to the covid lock down, the Perth Explore Double Decker Bus.

What a great way to see the city, even if it is a tad scary. We wanted to make sure we got the top deck, so we got into the city early, had a delicious breakfast and got to the bus stop in plenty of time to find out we were the only ones on the bus 😂😂.

After a tour of the city it was time for lunch, Brax had been bugging us for sushi, so sushi it was. Everyone was super excited when we found a sushi train! What an experience, everyone stuffed themselves.

After lunch we headed to the Perth Mint for a tour. We even got to watch first hand, molten gold be poured into a gold bar.

We had public transport passes for the day so we decided to jump on a ferry for an evening ride. Mel and I had been wanting to see the Water Maze Fountain, so we looked them up and made our way there, unfortunately they get turned off at 5pm ☹️, and we didn’t know so we missed out! Brett and Joel thought it was funny to film our disappointed faces when we arrived and realised what had happened!

After numerous walks, runs, buses, trains and ferry rides, it was time to head back to the van, we got back at 9.30pm making for a very long day, but it was worth it. It was actually very quite in town and everything was very accessible making the day very easy and enjoyable.Lue lisää

What a jam packed day, shopping for new wetsuits for the kids, skate park to get out some energy, 2 wineries, Guinea Pig cuddles and sheep feeding.

I was excited to go back to Mad Fish Winery to get some of my favourite Prosecco, but they were out of stock! To say I was devastated was an understatement, I think the lady could tell I was disappointed when I refused to taste any more wines in the tasting 🤣! Then onto Stella Bella, one we missed out on going to last time we were here. But after the disappointment of not getting my Prosecco, I just wasn’t in the mood for moscato, but I grabbed a bottle because it is one of my favourites.Lue lisää

Hamelin Bay
14. tammikuuta 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
The sun finally came out, so we took Aunty Mel, Uncle Joel and Taj to see the Black Sting Rays of Hamelin Bay.

We were a bit worried when we first got there as we couldn’t see any, but it didn’t take long before the jiggling of the pilchards we brought got their attention. There was three massive black sting rays and three or four eagle rays that came in to see us. They were so big they were pushing the kids over.

Last time we were here, Brax was very intimidated by their size and was scared to feed and touch them, but this time no encouragement was needed he was the first one in the water with a pilchard. All the kids (and grown ups) had a great time feeding them.

Then it was back to camp to jump on the golf buggies and head out to sheep feeding and cuddle some more Guinea pigs. Lachlan is never going to want to leave Big Valley Camp Ground!Lue lisää

Last day with Aunty Melly
15. tammikuuta 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
Today was our last day with Aunty Mel, Uncle Joel and Taj. It was a bit sad, as we have gotten to spend a lot of time with them while we have been in WA, but this was goodbye for a while 😢.

We made the most of the day, heading to Injidup Natural Spa first and it was so much fun ( sorry Kat). It had the perfect amount of spa going on.

Then it was off to Canal Bridge and The Aquarium for a snorkel. It was nice to get in the water, there was a few fish but the snorkelling was nothing amazing.

We stopped in at one last winery, Swings and Roundabouts a for a beer, while the kids had a play before heading back for pizza night at the camp ground. We couldn’t pass up one last wood-fired bread, dukka and bubbles before dinner!Lue lisää

Well we sure know how to spend up big $$$, the kids did well in Margs! A new wetsuit each and a new surf board 🏄‍♂️.

They desperately needed new wetsuits, poor Brax was still squeezing into a size 6😬, although now I may be regretting the decision as they don’t get cold and are spending hours in the water.

We spent the week relaxing and exploring the beaches. Brett was loving getting a surf each morning, then coming back to get us, so we would hang at the beach for the day. In the arvos we would relax while the kids had a skate at the skate park or we picked up dinner and went to the local park. It was way to hot to go back to caravan before 5pm (fire ban so no generator before 5pm). Then it was time for family movie night 🤗.Lue lisää
