First of three nights at PH. We have been invited to stay with some old friends of mine I travelled around for a few weeks in Europe about 20 years ago. They got 3 girls now about Mira and Seb’s age, so we were looking forward to a home stay. […]
20230726 On The Rock day 2
Just a chilled out day hanging around the rocks. School work, some games, soccer, rock hopping, kids started a fire on top of the rock mountain. Pretty much out of water now. So we are ready for some civilization. The kids pants are worn through to their undies. Giving straight […]
20230725 On The Rock
Road side stop on the way to port headland. Before we left Karijini, went back to the visitor center and the kids got their junior ranger badges. The lady checking their work seemed genuinely interested in the kids when which was really nice, kids were stoked to pass. kids enjoyed […]
20230723 Dales Gorge Karijini
And 20230724 Dales Gorge Pretty straight forward drive to Karijini. Pretty much the same drive we did to get to Hancock the other day. Went to the visitor center first. Kylie got a fridge magnet. Kids run around and annoyed me in the center as usual. Went and set up […]
20230722 Tom Price Jarndunmunha
We hiked up Jarndunmunha (formerly known as Mt Nameless, formerly formerly known as Jarndunmunha) from our caravan site. Was a bit further than what we expected. Lots of whinging. Came back, Kylie read some Harry Potter and had a few tears cause Dumbledore died. We head off tomorrow toward Dales […]
20230721 Tom Price day 3
Went for a quick drive through a mine sight in the morning than chilled. Had dinner at the miners Lodge. Buffet. Ate too much. Went and watched a bit of softball at the local field. Seb put the smiles on for the photos but not sure he really enjoyed the […]
20230720 Karijini Weano Gorge Hancock Gorge
Adventurous day. Two gorges and Jaffro lookout. Kids seem to enjoy the day as well. Photos and video penalty don’t do it justice. Very cold water, think someone (another family we have traveled a little with) may have got hyperthermia. And a few from Kylie. She doesn’t mind a selfie […]
20230719 Hamersley Gorge
Long drive with lots of corrugation to this gorge. We thought it was pretty busy when we got there. Looked even busier as we left. Short walk, bit steep. Cold water. Pretty amazing spot bar the crowds. Though get the feeling there won’t be many places that will be free […]
20230714 Exmouth day 3
Went and did some exploring around this general area. Lighthouse, Mildura shipwreck and Charles Knife Gorge. Kids have been enjoying some independence by going to the open air cinema by themselves.
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 […]
