Cervantes WA

Travelling from Fremantle to Cervantes we now understand why they say WA stands for windy always!

As we pulled into the RAC Cervantes Holiday Park we encountered the first real disruptive rain of our trip so far. We didn’t really have plans for the afternoon so retired to the camp kitchen for ‘happy hour’, which then rolled into dinner.

On account of the weather, the camp kitchen was pumping. It was interesting seeing the different meals being created by our fellow travellers - everything from monster T-bone steaks with mushroom sauce and all the salad trimmings, to spaghetti marinara loaded with prawns and a side of garlic bread. My all-microwave version of butter chicken and rice was not the envy of the kitchen. Fortunately, we have boys who are not discerning and appreciate quantity over quality in these circumstances.

Anthony and I, with Dan and Helen, were warmed by our first bottle of Margaret River red (a Xanadu special Cabernet Sauvignon). This definitely improved our meal 😋Read more
