Arthur passed away early Saturday morning. I stayed at Diane's house the rest of the night then we went over to see her Mum. After that she dropped my at Jen's house. Got some sleep last night then borrowed Matt's car and headed home for two nights. Have a burst water pipe in our front yard so no town water for the toilets!! Lucky they invented buckets.
Evie & Talion made me lunch today.
Jessie's mum passed away on Monday. So will stay a bit longer.Read more

Back with my darling. Had a big day yesterday. Woke up at 5.30am, left home at 8am, drove to Jenny's and left Matt's car there, then caught an Uber to the airport. Flight to Perth was fairly rough even though we were flying at a much lower height than going over. They had to stop handing out the lunches and resume about an hour later. It was too rough for tea & coffee so I had wine instead!!! Ended up being about half an hour late. Still had plenty of time to get to the other airport and that plane was half an hour late as well. Finally got to Albany at 11pm Qld time.
We will spend two nights at this beautiful spot.
Saw dolphins, rabbits, a snake and a few birds.Read more

Drove along the beach to get here from East Bay campsite.
Stayed the night at Betty's Beach. Had rain on and off during the night and morning.
A van had trouble getting up the hill towing his trailer, after three goes he unhooked it and a Nissan Patrol tried to get it up. They had three goes as well with no luck. We decided to hightail it out of there before the road got too cut up. Have to get back to Albany for Mal's doctors appointment.Read more

We were heading for a water hole but the road doesn't go through now. So we will stop here for the night.
Found our way across the lake, even though there was a sign saying the road was closed! Got to the other side and found out it was closed as dog traps had been laid there. Luckily I didn't get caught in one while I was wandering around in the bush looking for birds...….Read more
