  • Monkey Mia

    27 Agustus 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    We skipped Monkey Mia and Shark Bay on the way North so booked in for 4 nights on our way back down South. It was an amzing place and we were lucky with perfect weather for our whole time there. We spent plenty of time at the pool and beach, hired some kayaks and saw turtles, sharks and rays, kept our food safe from the resident emus and saw so many dolphins swimming around the jetty and the bay.Baca selengkapnya

  • Monkey Mia Marine Life Cruise

    28 Agustus 2023, Indian Ocean ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    While we saw a lot of marine life from the shore and kayaks, this cruise took things to a whole new level. We started with dolphins playing in the wake of the catamaran, went past an osprey nest and then headed out to the dugong feeding grounds where we saw dozens of dugongs. On the way back into shore we saw a sea snake, a shovel nosed shark and a leatherback turtle, and then Kelly, Jessica and Lewys enjoyed a salt spa in the netting at the front of the catamaran.Baca selengkapnya

  • Denham Aquarium

    29 Agustus 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

    On our last day in Monkey Mia we visited Denham for supplies and then the nearby Aquarium. Gerald the sea snake got up close and personal to Lewys and we learnt more about the local marine life.

  • Northampton and Mullewa

    31 Agustus 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 33 °C

    We left Monkey Mia after a wonderful few days and then had a tyre blow out on the road out to the main highway. We changed the tyre and continued on to our next stay at Northampton, booking in for some new tyres in Geraldton the next day.

    After getting the tyres replaced and finding a nice cafe for a coffee, we drove on to Mullewa to look at some wildflowers and then continued on to our next stop in Mount Magnet.

  • Mount Magnet and Walga Rock

    1 September 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 28 °C

    After a noisy night of road trains passing at Mount Magnet Caravan Park we drove out to Walga Rock to see the amazing gallery of Aboriginal art painted under its overhanging edge. The Rock itself is also a massive granite monolith, the second largest in Australia after Uluru.

    On the way back to Mount Magnet we also stopped at the Granites which had some stunning granite escarpments as well as some local art.

  • Sandstone and Jessica's birthday

    2 September 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 25 °C

    We had a great stay at Sandstone, we met a lady in the camp kitchen who made jewellery from rocks and gems she found in the north west and bought Jessica a special pendent and necklace for her birthday. There was some great art on the water tanks next to the caravan park and interesting history about the agricultural and mining history of the area in the local park.

    We had a special birthday breakfast for Jessica at the local Cafe where she had apple pie.

  • Prospecting with Hugh at Redcastle

    3 September 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 19 °C

    After Jessica's birthday breakfast we drove to Leonora to meet up with Hugh and Sue before following Hugh out to his prospecting camp at Redcastle. We jumped straight on the detectors but didn't find anything apart from some old tins and wire. We cooked a barbecue for dinner and Hugh had organised a special birthday cake, including candles, for Jessica's birthday.

    The weather got pretty wild the next day with strong winds and some rain. Once it had cleared we went out prospecting again but with no luck. Hugh did find a little gold nugget which Kelly, Jessica and Lewys helped to dig up and he then gave it to us which was so kind. For dinner we had a lamb stew cooked on the coals in a camp oven, it was amazing.

  • Nullarbor (again)

    21 September 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    I wasn't really looking forward to driving across the Nullabor again, but it was surprisingly interesting and enjoyable. We stayed overnight at Baxter's rest stop and then the Nullabor Roadhouse. We had amazing sunsets and sunrises and some beautiful scenery. We also stopped in Penong for a close up view of Australia's largest windmill.Baca selengkapnya

    Streaky Bay was a delight, a great caravan park, stunning scenery and refreshing swims. A stunning introduction to the Eyre Peninsula. It can get windy though, resulting in us scrambling to get the guys ropes out for the tent and a pretty wild and noisy night.Baca selengkapnya
