We headed to lakeside on the other side of the peninsula for a practice snorkel. Kids got the hang of it, drifting with the current. Was a bit cold for them but should be enough so the can go whale sharking tomorrow. Stopped and got some snaps with the giant […]
20230711 Travel to Exmouth
Expensive day. Caravan service, fuel, dentist, shopping, accommodation. Weather is definitely warmer up past the tropic of Capricorn which we have now past. First impression of Exmouth is positive. Nice little town center with pretty much everything you need. Maybe the west equivalent of Port Douglas. Lots of your operations […]
20230710 Coral Bay
One nighter in Coral Bay. Was over $100 dollars a night to stay here, ruled by landcruisers and the occasional kitted out F350. But it would be a nice place if it weren’t school holidays. Protected reef right near the shore although it does appear the victim of coral bleaching […]
20230709 Carnarvon day 2
Seb still not 100%. So chilled out a bit. Whiteheads were on their way. The family we gave Seb’s bike to also were going. Little bit loved that new bike I think. Mira got another bike from another family. I will need to fix a few things. Slow leak on […]
20230708 Carnarvon
Seb got a bit of a sore throat. Still he managed to come along to the space discovery center. Some cool stuff and a bit of history here. Made sushi for dinner which ended up surprisingly ok. Whiteheads came over and kids watched a movie while we chatted away. Still […]
20230707 Travel day to Carnarvon
Just a few photos from last night as well. Kylie and Mira got a sneaky hot tub session in the morning. Then stocking up a bit in Carnarvon. Short drive, just over an hour. Pretty windy on the foreshore at Carnarvon. The old mile jetty is shut. Hopefully weather better […]
20230706 Wooramel Station
Chilled day at the station. Kylie starting of her day in the hot tub. Kids ended up playing, went into got tub again. Had some live music, sax and the single last. She belted out some tunes for two and a half hours. She had to be in her seventies. […]
20230705 Travel to Wooramel
Just over 2 hours to get to Wooramel River Station. The river bed is dry and sandy but apparently was flowing in April. Some warm artisan tubs here as well. Had a fire with another family and the kids played for a bit. Must have been a long day. Grapefruit […]
20230704 Denham day 4
Chance to get some schooling done and get into town for stocking up on a few supplies. Went to the most westerly pub and locked the kids up in a shark cage. Kids ended up playing a bit of ping pong. Got some cheap bats but seems to do the […]
20230703 Denham day 3
Bit of a take it easy day. Went for a walk into town. Got a few things from the cafe. Kids started calling me from the pay phone, which are no longer pay phones. Seb cut his fringe into what I can only describe at a reverse rats tail cross […]
